The 2026 London Marathon
A legendary race through an iconic city
The TCS London Marathon is a world-renowned celebration of endurance, spirit, and unity — welcoming tens of thousands of runners each year to one of the most iconic racecourses on the planet. London is famous for its atmospheric, scenic, crowd-lined route, weaving past some of London’s most famous landmarks - from the Cutty Sark and Tower Bridge, to Big Ben and Buckingham Palace. Whether you're a seasoned marathoner or a first-time runner, the flat and fast course makes it a favourite for personal bests and memorable finishes.
Past runners consistently rave about the electrifying energy, world-class organisation, and overwhelming support from enthusiastic spectators, volunteers, and fellow participants. It’s a race where charity runners, elites, and costumed characters all share the same pavement — and the same roar of encouragement from the crowd!
The 2026 London Marathon is the moment to be part of something extraordinary - to run the streets of London, become part of a global legacy and raise funds for West London Action for Children. Our very own Fabulous Four will be running The Marathon this year in aid of WLAC on Sunday 26th April 2026.
Meet our superstar runners here! Click their pictures to visit their Marathon pages, and find out why they chose to run for WLAC.
We'll be cheering them on from the sidelines near Bermondsey Tube Station and meeting the finishers in Horse Guards Parade to congratulate them on their achievement. We have everything crossed for you and good luck all!
