TCS Mini London Marathon

The TCS Mini London Marathon is an annual event that inspires children and young people to be physically active. It takes place the day before the London Marathon. 

It covers 2 distances, finishing on The Mall.

It invites schools to bring children and young people to run, jog, walk, or wheel one mile or 2.6km in central London.

Each London borough can have a maximum of 6 boys and 6 girls in each age group for the elite event. A team is chosen to represent Southwark based on the quickest times for a 5km park run. 

To represent Southwark, you need to have been either born, live or go to school in the borough and be between 11 and 17 years of age.
