Gaza holds it's first Marathon....

Perhaps not everyone's ideal spot for a race but they have just held the first ever Marathon in the Gaza Strip. The event which was organised by the United Nations actually runs almost the complete length of the country...from the north all the ways down to the border with Egypt.

Video clip on the BBC website

There is also a series of photos on the Guardian website
