Have you got your own place?

Text

If you are one of lucky ones to secure your own place through the official London Marathon Ballot, or if you have a Good For Age place, we would love for you to join our team as an own place runner and raise money for hospice care.

Simply complete our online application form, making sure to select the ‘own place’ option. You'll receive all the same support as a charity place runner, however you will have no minimum fundraising target. We just ask you to raise what you can.
