Take on the iconic London Landmarks Half Marathon with Sands

It's one of the most exciting half marathons in the UK featuring some of London's top sights including Big Ben, the Shard, The Tower of London and the London Eye. Whilst running on those closed roads round London, you'll experience this incredible city like never before.

As part of Team Sands you'll receive

• Warm Sands welcome with fundraising ideas and training tips
• Supportive team emails and Team Sands WhatsApp group to get to know your team 
• Free Sands running vest
• Team Sands cheer spot on race day
• Once-in-a-lifetime experience which will help save babies’ lives and support anyone affected by the death of a baby

The difference you will make

Sands want to ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of time.  We want to campaign for change and support research so that fewer babies die and so that fewer families experience the pain of losing a baby.

We all know someone who has lost a baby. So join Team Sands and help us continue to be there for them. 

''Seeing the support of the SANDS team along the way was incredible. Running for a cause that I care about deeply was the best motivation there could be.''
