This event positively contributes to these Sustainable Development Goals:
All finishers will receive:
Every year thousands of runners take part in this event and fundraise for charity. While this is hugely beneficial to the charities it gives the runner advantages too, from supporting a cause that is close to your heart to securing a place in this highly sought-after event and much more.
Committing to raising money for charity gives you motivation to get outside and run, plus all of these extras which will elevate your event experience:
Charities know that raising money is all part of the challenge, which is why they provide advice, branded materials and a personalised online fundraising page to help the donations roll in. Think videos for social media, branded imagery and testimonials from previous runners.
Whether this is your first run or your fifth, you'll need to train for it! You'll receive an in-depth training plan with guidance, plus many charities have access to expert coaches and elite runners too, who can provide exclusive tips for your race preparation. Experts include Runningwithus, Full Potential and five-time Olympian Jo Pavey!
When you show up on the day, people need to be able to see clearly that you're supporting a charity. Most charities will give you a branded and personalised t-shirt or vest to run in on the big day, and often a training top too.
When you're partway through your run and your energy is flagging, what you need is a boost from cheering spectators to keep you moving. Many charities set up a cheer station along the route, keeping an eye out for you to send up a huge cheer as you run past!
Refreshments and an indulgent post-race sports massage are often provided by charities for their runners. This is the perfect way to recover alongside other people who have run for that cause.
You won't be the only person running for that charity, so it's well worth meeting other runners through the charity's invite-only social media pages! You can organise to meet up for training runs, chat with the charity's expert coaches and share tips and stories with each other to keep the motivation levels running high.
Charities buy places in this event, then give them to runners who agree to raise money for the charity – these are called charity places. Charity places are a great way to support a good cause and get a place in the event, especially if general entries are closed.

This was the first 10K I had done and found it brilliant particularly the great atmosphere around the whole route. Well organised from start to finish.
A great day out, well marked out course and a fantastic race atmosphere to boot. The course itself is pretty flat and has a few up and downhill loops which will keep you on your toes. There's quite a few hairpin turns on this one, though I found them to be quite fun to navigate personally - depends whether it's your thing or not!
With over 7,000 people taking to the streets of London to take part in the ASICS London 10k it certainly was a great party race vibe atmosphere event. Held on all closed roads and starting at Piccadilly it takes in a lot of the major roads in the West End! It’s rare you can say you ran along Piccadilly, Regent Street and along Pail Mail, before passing Trafalgar Square!
