Join Team SpecialEffect for the 2026 London 10k in July – or maybe next year’s London Marathon! There’s a warm welcome (and a fabulous running shirt) waiting for you if you’re up for the challenge!
The iconic London 10k takes place on Sunday 25 July this year, with thousands of runners taking over central London’s streets, racing past world-famous landmarks on a completely closed-road route. From live bands and DJs to roaring crowds and finish-line high fives, it’s an unforgettable day that captures the spirit of London at its best.
With over 150 Team Specialeffect runners taking part it’s also the biggest event in our own challenge events calendar, so there’s a guaranteed atmosphere of celebration and community, right from the warm hello at our charity tent to the excitement of crossing the finish line. Registration is £25
Sign up for the 2026 London 10k
We’d love to welcome you to Team SpecialEffect either as a ballot winner or as a successful applicant of one of our limited number of charity places. However you run for us, we’ll support you all the way with fundraising materials, advice, community support and, of course, a race day cheer point to help get you over the finish line! Applications for our own charity marathon places close at the end of July.
