About the TCS London Marathon
The world famous route takes you past London's most iconic landmarks including Tower Bridge and Big Ben, finishing the final stretch towards Buckingham Palace.
With around 50,000 runners and thousands of spectators cheering you on and calling your name, the buzz and atmosphere is like no other! And we'll be there to support you every step of the way.
How to register
Whether this will be your first marathon, or you're a seasoned pro, we'd love for you to join the team. We have four places in this event and if you are successful we ask all participants to pay a non-refundable registration fee of £200 two weeks after confirmation of your place, and to raise a minimum sponsorship amount of £2,500 by Monday 10th May 2026 (exclusive of Gift Aid).
Please only apply if you are confident you can commit to this amount, as your sponsorship money contributes to the vital work that The Aspinall Foundation does both here in the UK and overseas.
Please complete the form in as much detail as possible. Applications are open from Friday 8th August 2025 until 23.59 on Friday 22nd August 2025, and the successful participant will be notified of their place by Friday 29th August 2025.
Running the London Marathon was an incredible experience, something I will never forget. I ran the whole way with my zebra balloon and I'm so very grateful for the opportunity to not only achieve a life goal but to also raise money for your amazing charity. I hope with my balloon I also raised awareness too.
