London Marathon Double: Two Days. One Event.

The 2027 TCS London Marathon will be the first ever to take place across Saturday and Sunday. This one-off two-day event will give more runners than ever the chance to take on the iconic 26.2-mile challenge while raising vital funds to support people affected by spinal cord injury.
