Make the most of your Sunday by cheering on charity runners and getting some sightseeing in at the same time.
The Royal Parks Half Marathon passes a host of famous landmarks along its 13.1 mile route along closed roads, including Trafalgar Square, the London Eye and Buckingham Palace. The run also covers four of London’s eight Royal Parks: The Green Park, St James’ Park, Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.
The race starts and ends at South Carriage Drive in Hyde Park; you can download a map from the website to see the full route.
