Introduction to the Mall (Marathon): The Mall was a route built in Britain in the early 20th century specifically for major ceremonies. To this day, it is still the venue for formal ceremonies and major sporting events in London. For example, the London Marathon is held here.
The starting point and end point of the 2012 London Olympic and Paralympic marathons are located on the Boulevard. Since the Olympic events will be held after the Queen's 50th wedding anniversary and birthday, the three major events will last for 36 days; After the Olympic Games, all temporary buildings along the road will be demolished and the boulevard will return to its regular state.
