Join #TeamRaystede and take on London Marathon MyWay to help injured and unwanted animals in need!
This is your chance to be part of the world-famous London Marathon event from the comfort of your own hometown.
With 24 hours to do the full marathon distance, you can take as long as you need to finish it. You can stop and start or complete it all in one go - it's up to you.
Whether you walk, run, or break it down into stages, you’re in control on marathon day!
Once you’ve completed your marathon, you’ll receive an official finishers’ medal from the TCS Virtual London Marathon and a New Balance t-shirt.
Please note, our charity entries for 2026 are now closed, but you can still take part for Raystede with your own place. Or, register your interest for 2027, and be the first to find out when places become available for next year's event.
By taking part, you will receive:
- A fundraising pack
- A personalised Raystede running vest - proudly show off that you're part of #TeamRaystede
- Support leading up to the event
- Tips and advice to help you achieve your fundraising target
- TCS London Marathon finisher medal and a New Balance T-shirt
