![]() ![]() This challenge is for children to run, jog, walk or wheel 2.6 miles in their school between Monday 26 September and Friday 21 October – around the time of the TCS London Marathon on Sunday 2 October 2022. In addition, the TCS Mini London Marathon in schools returns for a third year in 2022. The ambition is to grow the mass event to the same size as the London Marathon, with 50,000 children taking part by 2030. It builds on the huge success of the virtual TCS Mini London Marathon where children run 2.6 miles in their schools, with 600,000 children across the UK expected to register this year. The introduction of this new mass participation event is part of London Marathon Events’ commitment to inspire more children to be physical activity. ![]() The event will also feature the championship races for the UK’s top young runners, which were traditionally held on the Sunday morning. The programme will feature one-mile and 2.6K events for children and young people of all abilities, from ages four to 17, over the final section of the TCS London Marathon course. ![]() In a unique new initiative, every child who finishes the event will be rewarded with £10 paid to their school to spend on PE or IT equipment, provided by TCS. The world-famous Finish Line on The Mall will welcome 7,000 children in the first edition of the new version of the TCS Mini London Marathon on Saturday 1 October. The 2022 TCS Mini London Marathon will be the biggest in the event’s history and will be held for the first time a day before the TCS London Marathon. ![]()
