Phoenix: Surrey - NOT the London Marathon Run
The event on Sunday 25 April 2027 is an alternative marathon-format event organised by Phoenix Running in Walton on Thames, Surrey. It uses an accurately measured and UKA certified route, Certificate No: 18/339, on a riverside towpath.
The course is a 3.28 mile measured lap with no overall elevation gain or loss. Runners complete repeated laps to achieve standard distances or to take part in a timed event that lasts seven hours. A physical medal of 150 mm is provided to participants as a memento.
Location details are given as Xcel Sports Hub Stadium, Waterside Drive, Walton on Thames, Surrey, KT12 2JG. Entry fees listed include separate rates for affiliated and unattached runners. The event notes distance restrictions for participants aged 20 or under in line with UK Athletics rules, and a full set of terms and conditions is published by the organiser.
Participants who hold a London Marathon virtual bib may wear that bib during the event; the organiser will publish that bib number in the official results. The surface is off road trail along the riverside towpath. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
