Thank you to everyone who applied for one of our golden bonds in the 2019 Virgin Money London Marathon.  We have now filled our places after receiving over 150 applications for our 20 places.  It was an incredibly tough decision so apologies to those who didn’t get in this time.  Please do try again next year!

If you managed to get your own place and would like to join Team 21, we’d love to have you!  Please get in touch with Georgina on the details below.

Do not worry, we are already thinking of 2020 like many of you are too. If you are keen to support DSA next year then please know that our own charity ballot will be open soon after the 2019 London Marathon, so make sure to check back on this page to see any updates in early May. All we ask of our runners is that you pay a £50 registration fee (to confirm your charity place) and pledge to raise a minimum of £2,000 in sponsorship.

HUGE thanks to our incredible 2018 Team21!

TEAM 21 – Mark, Sarah, Clare, Menna, Mary, Kate, Matt, Julie, Abi, Simon, Carlo, Jonathan, Bruce, Jarlath, Stuart, Charlie, Helen, Derek, Abbie, Frankie, Matt, Matthew, Carolyn, Tim, Ian, Wesley, Helen, Richard, Lee, Phil and Katrina

We asked some of our runners to tell us their stories of their Marathon experience.  Thanks to Ian and Matt.
