Story

Following the global Covid-19 pandemic, LLHM 2021 will be re-themed to celebrate, commemorate and reflect upon the landmark moments of 2020 and 2021.

We will be shining a light on how we are coming together as a nation during this unprecedented time. We will bring to life:

THE GRAND: THE KEY WORKERS: We will celebrate the grand, heroic and incredible actions and services delivered by our nations key workers. From the NHS and teachers, to postmen, cleaners, bus drivers, emergency services, scientists and beyond.

THE QUIRKY: THE LOCKDOWN LIFE: We will showcase some of the quirky, light-hearted and sometimes bizarre moments of lockdown life. From home-schooling and Zoom quizzes, to sourdough starters, flour shortages and PE with Joe. Well be trying to make runners smile along the route.

THE HIDDEN: THE UNSEEN ACTS OF KINDNESS: We will remember the daily kind gestures of neighbours and small sacrifices made that went unseen. From delivering food and medicine to each other, to sharing a socially distanced cup of tea on nearby doorsteps and gardens. We will honour how we made it through a time like no other with true community spirit and togetherness.

SPECIAL TRIBUTE: THE MEMORY MILE: We will also dedicate a mile of the route to running in memory of our loved ones who passed away during the pandemic, many of whom we were unable to pay tribute to at the time.

BRINGING LANDMARKS MOMENTS TO LIFE: Along our amazing route, runners will be immersed in our celebration of The Grand, The Quirky and The Hidden landmark moments of lockdown life. We will create interactive activations that will engage, entertain and inspire runners as they pass.

Dont miss the classic LLHM favourites:

Special guests greeting runners at the Finish Line

We will also continue to use the race as an opportunity to celebrate Londons wonderful culture and communities, by reaching out to brilliant performers, volunteers and community groups across the capital to entertain and support runners along the route.

Please join us for what will be a fun and memorable event and fundraise for SameYou to continue our work to deliver practical help and tangible improvements in recovery after brain injury and stroke.
