London Marathon 2024
The London Marathon is the world’s most famous marathon and welcomes 50,000 runners to the streets of London every year. Enjoy the breathtaking views of our historical capital city while making your way around the 26.2 mile course.
Registration to join Team Refuge in the 2024 London Marathon is now closed. Applications for the 2025 London Marathon will open in April 2024.
The demand for charity places this year have been extremely high and therefore, to prevent disappointment, we have decided to close the applications.
If you have registered in the ballot and are successful, then we would love for you to join Team Refuge. Please register your details under “I have a London Marathon ballot place” so that we can welcome you to the team.
