With its central London route winding between some of the world’s most iconic and loved Landmarks, the London Landmarks Half Marathon is one of the most exciting running events around!
You’ll get to go past the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, spot the London Eye, run through the City of London and whizz past St Paul’s Cathedral. The stellar support, live entertainment, warm community atmosphere and closed roads make the London Landmarks Half Marathon one for every runner, regardless of experience level.
Following the success of the last event, we are pleased to be taking applications for our 2026 Independent Age team! We endeavour to contact participants as soon as possible to allocate spaces to successful runners.
Why run for Independent Age?
At Independent Age, we believe that no one should face financial hardship in later life. Yet today almost two million older people live below the poverty line, with many more experiencing precarious finances.
By fundraising for Independent Age, you will provide a lifeline for older people in financial hardship.
You’ll receive fantastic support from our friendly team from the moment you sign up until you complete your challenge.
We’ll provide you with:
- a free Independent Age technical running vest to wear for your event
- a well-deserved certificate, showing the amazing amount you raise for us
- fundraising and training support from our dedicated Events team
- and we'll be there to cheer you on on the day!
