When is the London Landmarks Half Marathon?

The London Landmarks Half Marathon will take place on Sunday 6 April 2025.

Where is the event?

The event takes place in central London. The start line will be on Whitehall and the finish line will be near to Trafalgar Square. Please check the LLHM website for detailed information about where to go and timings on the day. 

When does the race start?

Every runner will be allocated a starting wave between 9:20am and 10:40am.  London Landmarks organisers will be in touch closer to race day with your starting time.

What if I become injured or need to cancel my place?

Not a problem! If you have a ballot/general entry place, you will need to contact us and the event organisers. If you have a Marie Curie guaranteed place, our supporter relations team can help you. Email them on team@mariecurie.org.uk.

When will I receive my race day information and running number?

Race packs will be delivered to all participants, including international runners, approximately 2-4 weeks before the event. Everything you need will be included in your pack and you won't need to collect anything on the day. You will also recieve your Race Day Guide as well as your starting wave details via email.

Please contact the Customer Services team on support@llhm.co.uk or check out their website if you have any queries.

Will there be toilets and drinks stations?

Details about support on race day can be found by contacting the organisers via email at support@llhm.co.uk

What should I do about travel and accommodation?

The best place to find information about transport and accommodation is on the LLHM website  . Do try and book early to get the best choice and best deals! Any road closures on the day can be found again on the LLHM website  .

What will I receive as part of Team Marie Curie?

As part of the team you'll receive:

  • access to our Runners' Zone and training app with training plans, tips and advice
  • regular e-newsletters with fundraising support and advice to help you smash your target
  • a Marie Curie running vest
  • on-hand support from our fundraising team.
  • on-the-day support from our dedicated events team
  • a loud and proud cheer squad on the day to help you through those tough miles.

What's my fundraising target?

If you have a Marie Curie guaranteed place, your minimum sponsorship is £380. If you have a ballot place, we just ask that you raise as much as you can for Marie Curie.

What if my Marie Curie top hasn't arrived or is the wrong size?

Please contact us as soon as possible on team@mariecurie.org.uk so we can get one out to you ahead of race day.

Where will Marie Curie be on event day?

We'll have dedicated cheer points on the day and we'd love your personal cheer squad of family and friends to join us! We'll be updating information about our plans closer to the event here  .
