Event overview
The London Marathon is the UK’s most iconic 26.2-mile race and one of the Abbott World Marathon Majors, making it one of the most prestigious events in global distance running. Known for its flat, fast course through central London and huge crowd support, it attracts everyone from first-time marathon runners to elite athletes competing at the highest level. The race is also famous for having one of the most competitive marathon ballots in the world, alongside widely used charity entry routes. Demand consistently far exceeds available places, making securing a spot a major achievement in itself. For many runners, the London Marathon is both a bucket-list experience and a genuine PB opportunity on a world-class stage.
