Royal Parks Half Marathon – Sunday 7 October 2012
Join our Run for Wishes team and help grant magical wishes!
Join an iconic and picturesque half marathon race through four of London's Royal Parks (Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, St James’s Park and Green Park) and past some of the capital's most historic landmarks, including Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Houses of Parliament and Royal Albert Hall. You’ll join over 12,500 other runners, all raising money for their chosen charities.
There will be a wide range of fun sporting activities and arts & crafts for the whole family to try, a scrumptious farmers market, big screen entertainment and live music, plus lots of giveaways. Many of these activities will take place after the race has started, using the large open space in front of the stage which is also used for the mass warm-up earlier in the morning.
