London Landmarks Half Marathon
Support Our London Landmarks Half Marathon Runners
The London Landmarks Half Marathon 2025 is an exhilarating athletic race through the streets of our capital. Set against the backdrop of stunning architecture and historic monuments, participants will jog past such landmarks as Nelson’s Column, the Tower of London, Big Ben and the London Eye. The run
will be accompanied by street performances, jubilant crowds, and the pulsating rhythm of live music that along the route.
ArcticQuest26 are fortunate to have five volunteer participants who have taken on the challenge of this 13 mile run in aid of our cause so we are seeking donations on their behalf to support their efforts. As an additional challenge they will be wearing polar bear hats!
Our runners are: –
- Matt Wood (JustGiving Page: Matthew Wood is fundraising for Kent Scouts)
- Dean Almond
- Sam Payne
- Karen Tottle (Karen is using an offline sponsorship form)
- Amy Adams (JustGiving Page: Amy Adams is fundraising for Kent Scouts)
