Explore the grand, hidden and quirky landmarks of London.
Date: Sunday 6th April 2025
Location: London
Distance: Half marathon
The London Landmarks Half Marathon is a closed road, central London run and is the only half marathon to go through both the City of London and City of Westminster.
This event is not your average half marathon. It will take you on an adventure to experience London’s wonderful culture and heritage and to discover quirky & hidden secrets of the capital. Mile markers will reveal interesting facts, water stations will have a Roman theme and you’ll be cheered on by suffragettes. There’ll be a surprise round every corner. Be quick to register your interest as we have a limited number of spots!
Registration Fee: £25
Sponsorship: £400
