Join #TeamNBUK and run in one of the most respected marathons of all time.
The Virgin Money London Marathon is THE event everyone has been waiting for. We’re incredibly excited to be able to offer two runners the opportunity to take part this autumn, to help in our fight against neuroblastoma. You’ll be left with unforgettable memories of a buzzing atmosphere, captivating route, and a whole lot of smiles.
Coronavirus fears? Don’t worry. The marathon has been purposefully pushed back till October, by which time all adults in the UK should have been offered the vaccine. Moreover, the race organisers are going above and beyond to ensure that you stay safe.
About the route
The marathon will take you through the very heart of the capital. Starting at Blackheath in Greenwich, you’ll pass:
Buckingham Palace
