Event details

Kick-start your year with the London Winter Walk, and recruit your friends and family or take on the challenge solo! There are 4 distances to choose from: 5km, 10km, half marathon (21km) or full marathon (42km). All routes are walking only, and the 5km walk is wheelchair accessible and suitable for families with young children.

You'll start from the Oval cricket ground and take in some of the historic bridges and other highlights of central London as you walk along the Thames. For half or full marathoners, there will be rest stops with snacks along the way. When you arrive back at the Oval, you'll be able to collect your finisher's medal and enjoy a celebratory hot meal.
