Dash past iconic London landmarks like Big Ben, London Bridge and along the River Thames in a 10K race to remember.

About the event

The ASICS London 10k is one of the most iconic races the capital has to offer. Join Team St John’s and enjoy every kilometre of the route, with live bands, DJs and cheering crowds along the course. You will get to run along the River Thames, past St Paul’s Cathedral and Big Ben, all while being cheered on by the amazing crowds. The flat route is great for beginners or for those chasing a personal best.

Please note, runners must be aged 18 or over on the day of the race. The deadline to apply for one of our charity places is Friday 28 June 2024.

“I wanted to run the ASICS 10K to thank St John’s for all the help and care they showed my brother Joseph, and our family during a very difficult time.”
