About the Event

Dive into a mesmerizing run alongside the River Thames this October during the Thames Meander marathon series. This unique race offers three distinct distances designed for runners at all levels: a full 42.2km marathon, a half-marathon stretching to 21.1km, and an invigorating 10k route. Each course follows an out-and-back layout along the river's edge, offering breathtaking panoramic views of London’s historic landmarks and tranquil waters.
Runners begin their journey at the iconic Tower Bridge before heading eastward, passing by HMS Belfast and bustling Canary Wharf towards picturesque Greenwich Park. The return leg retraces this scenic route, allowing runners to fully immerse themselves in each section’s distinctive atmosphere while striving for a personal best or simply enjoying the surroundings.
The Thames Meander is more than just a race; it's an immersive experience celebrating beauty and history along one of London’s most cherished waterways. A highlight of the event includes receiving bespoke finisher medals, designed to commemorate your achievement in this unforgettable setting.

Join us as we run alongside the Thames and create memories that will last long after the race concludes.
