London Landmarks Half Marathon 2026

Half marathon

Date: 12 Apr 2026

Run the London Landmarks Half Marathon for The Lily Foundation

Join Team Lily for an unforgettable 13.1-mile run through the heart of the capital – and become a mito superstar!

The London Landmarks Half Marathon is one of our favourite events of the year – and we’d love you to be part of it in 2026! This closed-road race is the only half marathon to run through both the City of London and the City of Westminster, offering an iconic route packed with history, energy and incredible support.

Highlights from the 2025 race included Lily legend Liz and her family crossing the finish line along with so many members of our amazing community. We’re confident 2026 will be even bigger and better – and we want YOU on the team!

Starting on Pall Mall and finishing near Downing Street, you’ll pass Big Ben, St Paul’s Cathedral, Nelson’s Column, the Gherkin, the Shard, the Tower of London and the London Eye – all whilst making every step count for children and families affected by mitochondrial disease.

London Landmarks is more than a race – bringing together local schools and community groups, cultural organisations and historical landmarks, sports clubs and music, entertainment and support in one capital celebration. It’s like a guided tour of London with your running shoes on!

Take on this unforgettable challenge for a special cause. Sign up today and help make a difference to the mito community.

What you’ll receive from The Lily Foundation:

• fundraising pack with tips and ideas
• sponsorship form
• Lily performance running top
• ongoing support
• thank you certificate.
