Run the 2013 London Marathon for IFAW
Would you like to take part in the 2013 Virgin London Marathon?
We are now looking to assemble our 2013 team of runners. There are two ways you can join us and help to raise as much money as possible for animals around the world.
Use your own place to support us
The ballot for the 2013 Virgin London Marathon has now closed. If you are lucky enough to gain a place through the ballot we would love you to run for us as part of our team. You will have access to all the same benefits as our Golden Bond runners but there is no minimum amount that you need to raise. Please contact us for further information and a fundraising pack info-uk@ifaw.org.
Apply for a Golden Bond place
IFAW has a limited number of guaranteed places to offer and would be delighted to hear from you! We ask all of our Golden Bond runners to raise a minimum of £1500. To apply, please download and fill in our Golden Bond application form and e-mail it to us at info-uk@ifaw.org.
Runners will be chosen on the basis of their application form. Please contact us with any questions on 020 7587 6700 or info-uk@ifaw.org.

All our runners will get:
- The knowledge that you will be saving animals in crisis around the world
- Fundraising support throughout the year and on the day
- An IFAW goody bag
- An IFAW branded running vest
- Fundraising pack, sponsor forms and official merchandise
The London Marathon takes place along 26.2 miles of crowd lined streets and passes such historic sights as tower Bridge, Canary Wharf, The London Eye, Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace. It is a unique experience and the crowds cheer you on every step of the way.
If you don’t fancy running the London Marathon but would still like to be part of the day, come and join our IFAW cheering squad! Contact us at info-uk@ifaw.org for further details.

A big thank you to all our past runners and everyone who has sponsored and supported them!
