Where to watch
The 2026 London Marathon will air in the US on FloTrack.
An expected 59,000 runners are expected on the starting line on Sunday for the 46th running of the iconic London Marathon.
Last year's men's and women's winners of the 26.2-mile road race through the UK's capital will both be looking to retain their crowns. Kenya's Sabastian Sawe and Ethiopia's Tigst Assefa are being widely tipped to set new course records, as they both came close to doing so in 2025.
The course includes London landmarks such as Tower Bridge and Cutty Sark, before it heads down the final stretch of the Mall that leads to the finish line right outside of Buckingham Palace. Here, world-class Olympians share the same route with competitive amateurs and costumed fun runners.
