The race will start in waves. Runners start on The Mall, by kind permission of The Royal Parks, and finish in front of Buckingham Palace.
The marshals will direct you to the start zones according to your running number. Line up in the start zone that matches your letter and colour at the appropriate time. Remember that your timing device on your shoe will give you an accurate time regardless of which wave you are in.
The course is perfectly suited to spectators. A particularly good spot to watch the action can be found at the Strand, where you'll have two opportunities to glimpse competitors.
After the race, the best place to meet back up with competitors is at Green Park. Alphabetical Signage will be on show to differentiate each assembly area , so predetermine a letter to meet at beforehand to make things easy!
