Race Info
The London 10,000 (marketed as the Vitality London 10,000) is an annual road running event over 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) in London, United Kingdom. Established in 2008, the race runs through St. James's Park and finishes on the Mall by Buckingham Palace. Bupa sponsored the race until 2016, when VitalityHealth took over.
The race was held in late May through 2022. It moved to a September date starting in 2023, when the Coronation of King Charles III and the King's Birthday Parade crowded the spring ceremonial calendar, and it has stayed in September since. It remains one of the most popular mass-participation 10Ks in the UK, with more than 17,000 finishers in 2025. It is managed by London Marathon Events, the same organiser as the London Marathon.
