Don't miss out on your chance to enter the world's most famous marathon. With over 35,000 runners and crowds of cheerers the Virgin London Marathon really is one of the most exciting and fun events to be part of. 
Congratulations to our team of runners in 2010 - you all did amazing and it was a great day!
In 2010 we had 162 runners supporting the British Lung Foundation and this year we want to aim even higher! We would love you to join our team and help support the thousands of people living with lung conditions in the UK.
Gold Bond places
The British Lung Foundation has Gold Bond places; in return for a place we ask that you will raise £1600 towards our vital work (excluding gift aid) to help people affected by lung disease in the UK. We'll also be on hand with lots of fundraising advice, and we'll cheer you every step of the way from our cheering points and be on hand with some well-deserved refreshments and massages!
To apply for a place download the application form and return it to us as soon as possible to guarentee your place. Please include your £50 registration fee.
Own Place Runners
The ballot has now closed and you will find out if you have been successful in October. If you are, we would love to have you on our team; there is no set fundraising target for own place runners but we will be here to support you with training and fundraising. 
The support we offer includes:
- State of the art running vest and training t-shirt
- A BLF fundraising pack with sponsor forms
- Monthly e-newsletters with training and fundraising tips and information
- Post race reception with refreshments, hot showers, massages and goody bags
- Two cheering points along the route to help cheer you along when you need it
