Event Day
How old do I have to be to take part?
You must be 17+ on Race Day (Sunday 6 April 2025) to take part in this event.
Where does the London Landmarks Half Marathon take place?
The race takes place in London, starting on the iconic Pall Mall and ending outside Downing Street. If you are travelling from far, we would recommend booking your accommodation as soon as you have secured your running place.
Joining Team Target
I got a place through the ballot. Can I still join Team Target?
Yes, we would love for you to join our team and you'll receive the same support as someone who is running with a charity place!
There is no minimum sponsorship target - we just hope you'll raise as much as you can!
Please note, we do ask for proof of your ballot place to avoid confusion or disappointment.
Race Pack
When will I receive my race pack?
The event organisers will be sending your race pack one month before the event. This will contain your all-important bib number.
Whether you requested a running vest or t-shirt, we will be sending this to you approximately one month before your race.
If you requested iron-on-letters on your registration form, we will be sending this to you approximately one month before your race, separately from your running top.
Fundraising
How does my fundraising help?
Your support makes all the difference to ensure that we can continue working to improve early diagnosis, fund life-saving research and provide support to women with ovarian cancer.
£17 means our nurse-led support line can help one more person who needs advice and information they can trust.
£50 can help 50 people learn about the symptoms of ovarian cancer through our leaflets. Knowing the symptoms and when to visit the GP can vastly improve early diagnosis.
£250 can fund a day of life-saving research. We're working to improve ovarian cancer diagnosis and treatment for everyone now, and in the future.
How do I get started with my fundraising?
Once you have completed your registration with us, your charity fundraising page is automatically created for you. We would highly recommend personalising your page with a profile photo, your reason for supporting us and then sharing this with your family, friends, colleagues and on social media.
Our dedicated team are here to support you every step of the way, so please get in touch if there is anything that you need. We can chat through any ideas that you might have for fundraising, such as holding an event or raffle.
Where can I order fundraising materials (e.g. collection boxes)?
You can order them on our web form here.
