London Marathon

Challenge yourself to a marathon and raise vital funds for AMREF 


 

The 2011 Virgin London Marathon

The public ballot has now closed. If you have missed out, we have Gold Bonds available to give you the chance to take part:

AMREF Gold Bonds

In 2011, AMREF will once again have a limited amount of Gold Bond places for the Virgin London Marathon. To apply for one of these, please fill in the online application form or contact events@amrefuk.org or more information.

Even if you are entering the ballot as well, please apply for an AMREF Gold Bond and, should you be unsuccessful, you will then be considered for one of these. Even if you get a place through this, you can still run for AMREF.

Support from AMREF

Everyone who runs the Virgin London Marathon for AMREF will receive support from our dedicated fundraising team. We will send you a fundraising pack to kick start your efforts, and provide you with a personalised running vest for the big day. Below is a selection of training plans to help you along the way:
