Join the Spinal Research Runners Network for the 2013 Virgin London Marathon and experience the challenge of a lifetime!

Since 1981, the Virgin London Marathon has grown into one of the world’s truly iconic races, offering runners of all levels an inspiring fitness challenge. Each year thousands of runners push their bodies to the limits with a tough race around the 26.2 mile course, and you could join them!

Want one of our places?

We have guaranteed places for the 2013 event. In return for a guaranteed place, we ask for a registration fee of £50 to secure your entry and that you pledge to raise a minimum of £1,700 in sponsorship to help us beat paralysis.

Got your own place?

If you’re lucky enough to be allocated a Ballot entry or you have a wheelchair entry and want to take part for Spinal Research, we just ask that you raise as much as you can to help us develop treatments to restore feeling and mobility to people paralysed as a result of breaking their neck or back.

What can you expect from us?

Everyone in our team will receive a full support package including:

  • A comprehensive fundraising guide
  • Personalised sponsor forms
  • Details on how to set up an online fundraising page
  • A complete marathon training guide
  • Regular team e-newsletters
  • An exclusive pre-race party invite
  • A cheering party en-route on race day, with sweeties to keep you going!
  • A Spinal Research running vest
  • Not to mention heaps of encouragement, help and advice!

We are pleased to be supported by Graeme Hilditch's Fit FAQ’s, a service designed to help you train for the marathon. To find out more visit Fit FAQ’s. Run by personal trainer Graeme Hilditch (author of our training guides), Fit FAQ’s can help you achieve your marathon goals.
