London Marathon
The London Marathon is one of the world’s best-known long-distance running events, first held on March 29, 1981. This annual race usually takes place in April and spans the iconic cityscape of London. Participants begin in Greenwich Park and finish at The Mall, near Buckingham Palace, covering 26.2 miles (42.195 kilometres). Along the way, runners pass by significant landmarks such as the Tower of London, the Houses of Parliament, and the London Eye.
The marathon attracts diverse participants, including elite runners from around the globe, such as Olympic champions and world record holders. It also features tens of thousands of amateur runners who join for personal challenges or to support charitable causes. In 2023, over 40,000 runners participated, showcasing the event’s broad appeal and community spirit. The race is particularly noteworthy for its significant fundraising impact, with millions of pounds raised for various charities annually.
Records set in the London Marathon highlight its competitive nature. Eliud Kipchoge of Kenya holds the men’s course record at 2:02:37, set in 2019. Paula Radcliffe of the UK set the women’s course record in 2003, with a time of 2:15:25, which also stood as a world record. In the wheelchair category, Marcel Hug holds the men’s record at 1:26:27, and Manuela Schär holds the women’s record at 1:39:52, both set in 2021.
The marathon’s cultural and charitable significance is profound. Since its inception, the event has raised over £1 billion for charity, making it one of the most significant annual fundraising events worldwide. The race promotes athletic excellence and fosters a festive atmosphere throughout London, drawing large crowds and creating a sense of community.
The next London Marathon is scheduled for April 21, 2024. It promises to continue its tradition of blending elite competition with mass participation, bringing together a wide array of runners from different backgrounds for a day of remarkable athletic achievement and communal celebration.
