Run the Ghost Tubes - Half Marathon & 10K

Tue 1st October 2024 - Thu 31st December 2026

A group of people is gathered around a street performer near a statue in an urban area at night. Big Ben and the illuminated Houses of Parliament are in the background, and some people are wearing "Vegan Runner" shirts. A group of people in colorful outfits, some in costumes, gather around a blue police box on a city street at night. The street is lined with restaurants and a bicycle rack, and the scene is lit by surrounding lights. A group of people wearing "Vegan Runners" shirts stand outside a building at night, looking through the windows. The scene is dimly lit, with a brick wall and metal fencing visible in the background. A group of runners in athletic gear poses in front of a large sphinx statue on a sunny day. They're smiling and wearing matching shirts with the words "May Contain Gin." A few people stand on the stone ledge of the monument. The city skyline is visible.

Organiser's Description

Our new audio-guided running tour will take you on an adventure through some of London's spookiest sights. Over a half marathon or 10km distance, you'll explore the closed down 'ghost tube' stations that have stood disused and forgotten for decades. ​

Taking you to 11 (half marathon) or 7 (10k) ghost tube stations in total, your GPS location will trigger directions through your headphones. You'll also get audio commentary that reveals the secret past of the forgotten stations of the world's oldest underground railway.

Sign up today and take on the challenge at any time from October 1st 2024 until 31st Dec 2026. Please note that this event does not include access to the ghost tube stations, which is highly restricted. We'll be visited the remains above ground.

We've been leading running tours of London for 9 years and can't wait to show you some of the city's best bits along our famous river.

I have done the 10k and then the half marathon route of this. The second half of the half marathon is the 10k. Very nice route and I saw parts of London that I haven't seen before. The audio narration is nice and well done.

I did this race 2 weeks back. Great directions, easy to follow, interesting. I would recommend starting earlier in the day as some areas get busy. First time I have used this company and felt they were 5/5, will be back.
