London Marathon 2026 preparations

Organizers are exploring the possibility of holding the marathon over two days in 2027 to accommodate the unprecedented demand.

This year's race will feature elite athletes from around the world alongside thousands of amateur runners raising millions for charity.

The Met Office is forecasting warm weather for the event, prompting advice for participants to stay hydrated.

Significant road closures will be in place across the capital, with police warning of strict measures to prevent any disruption to the course.
