Is a half marathon calling you in 2026? Look no further. The London Landmarks Half Marathon is the only half marathon to go through both the City of London and City of Westminster and gives you the opportunity to run on closed roads in the capital!
London Landmarks is not your average half marathon! From cultural landmarks and heritage to the city's quirky and hidden secrets, runners get to explore the capital on a route like no other!
The event starts on Pall Mall, finished by Downing Street and had fabulous views of London’s most iconic landmarks including Big Ben, St Paul’s Cathedral, Nelson’s Column, the Gherkin, the Shard, the Tower of London and the London Eye.
Whether you’re an experienced runner or a novice looking for a new challenge, we would love you to represent Team ACF on the streets of London next April.

why run FOR aFRICAN CHILDREN’S fUND?
The funds you raise from the London Landmarks Half Marathon will reduce school absence and improve long-term outcomes for children in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe, leading to better opportunities for a future free from poverty. Donations from your supporters make a big collective difference. This is where you come in:
£12 provides a girl in Tanzania with reusable sanitary towels and access to social education forums so she won't miss one week in four of her schooling;
£20 covers the cost of a care pack for an orphaned family in Zimbabwe so they children concentrate on learning rather than working;
£90 pays for a mug of porridge for 1,000 children in Kenya, reducing the need for working, scavenging or begging for food;
£250 supports a social worker in Uganda, to resettle a child rescued from the streets with a family.
PLUS you can tick this iconic Half Marathon off your bucket list.
