The 1908 London Olympic Marathon set the standard of 26.2 miles that we run today. Queen Alexandra wanted the race to start on the lawn of Windsor Castle and finish in front of the royal box at the Olympic stadium. What was previously a 25-mile race became, in one royal request, a 26.2 mile one. While the Marathon course in London today follows a different route, its winding course traverses London’s many and varied neighborhoods, treating runners to a breathtaking tour of the city culminating in a royal finish in front of Buckingham Palace.
Back for our third year in our Trackhouse in Marylebone, join us in celebrating this remarkable race all weekend long.

London Collection
Every year, we design limited edition kits for each of the six World Marathon Majors to celebrate the unique achievement these races represent. This year our design was inspired by the varied roads that we train on every day. It's your last chance to shop our London Collection online, but it will also be available in limited quantities in the London Trackhouse over marathon weekend, alongside London-inspired marathon weekend exclusives, race day necessities, and a selection of our everyday training staples, like the award-winning Eliot Runner.
