Challenge yourself to run the extraordinary feat of 26.2 miles with Team Chance for Childhood in one of the world’s biggest marathons!
As Guinness World Record’s largest annual fundraising event in the world, every year thousands of people enter the ballot to run the London Marathon from across the globe. In 2018, a record-breaking 414,186 people entered the ballot – but only around 40,000 are randomly selected to run the race! Running for a charity provides you with a guaranteed entry to run and for a worthwhile cause. Since 1981, London Marathon runners have raised an amazing £890 million for charity.
Applications for the 2019 Marathon are now closed and Team Chance for Childhood is getting ready for the big day on the 28 April! Keep an eye out on our social media channels to follow the progress of our biggest London Marathon team yet.
Run with us in 2020
Event date: 26 April (TBC)
