"The TCS London Marathon is the world's most popular marathon, and we are always exploring innovative ways to enable more people to take part and to deliver positive benefits for London."
"It is hoped that staging two marathons would boost London's economy and wellbeing and raise an additional 130 million for charity."
Organizers are in advanced talks to stage a two-day London Marathon on April 24 and 25 next year. The plan aims to accommodate more runners, as record applications for the marathon have surged. In 2026, over 1.1 million people applied, with less than 5% securing a spot. The initiative is expected to enhance London's economy and raise an additional £130 million for charity. The Chief Executive emphasized the marathon's popularity and the importance of collaboration with stakeholders to deliver positive community benefits.
