Some run for personal achievement, some to raise money for their favourite charity, and many run in outrageous fancydress: from a giant shoe and a London bus, to superheroes and a wide range of animals. The Virgin Money London Marathon is open to all abilities, from beginners to professional athletes. Celebrities who have run the London Marathon in previous years include Chris Evans, Princess Beatrice, Gordon Ramsay, Agyness Dean, Jenson Button and even astronaut Tim Peake in the International Space Station.
Taking part in the London marathon not only challenged me physically and mentally but was one of the most amazing things I’ve done for myself and the people I’ll be helping with the money raised.

For many runners, especially marathon first-timers, the run up to the Virgin Money London Marathon can mean the start of sleepless nights worrying: What if I get injured? What should I wear? How far should I have run before the big day?
Every year in advance of Race Day, we invite runners to come and meet the marathon experts. This event, for both new and improving runners, is the ideal opportunity to discuss your race preparation with some of the foremost authorities in the world of distance running and get the best possible advice to help you prepare for the race.
The 2017 Virgin Money London Marathon Meet the Experts day was held on Saturday 4 February 2017 at Central Hall Westminster, an iconic venue just metres from the glorious London Marathon Finish Line.
