The course is designed to showcase the capital city, passing landmarks such as the London Eye, Tower Bridge, and finishing at The Mall. For the 2027 edition, organizers are exploring a potential two-day format across Saturday and Sunday.
Participants can access various resources including training plans, a pace team, and a dedicated running show exhibition. Detailed participant guides are provided for both the standard marathon and the "MyWay" virtual option. Accommodation booking and official kit are also available through the event's partners.
The event utilizes a random ballot system for public entries. International participants are required to pay an entry fee that includes a carbon offset fee for travel.
