A well organised event. I found the Tower of London Run well organised, great atmosphera despite of the rain and hailstorm. Very sustainable too, it was a plastic free event. Have to mention the beautiful medal we received at the finish. Definitely will be back next year.

Wet but entertaining. Despite the pouring rain and hail, the BHF did an amazing job of organising the run. We were meant to set off every 15 minutes but to make sure everyone was out in the rain for a short as possible we could set off whenever we liked. The course was well marked and very encouraging marshalls! There was also an excellent massage team at the end for a small donation which was definitely worth it! Bag drop, t shirt collection and changing rooms were all really well run. Definitely worth doing and can’t wait for next year!
