Interested in a Support Runner?
If you are visually impaired, or your disability or medical condition means you need a support runner, you can apply for a free place for them. Please email us outlining your request and the reasons for it.
We will provide your support runner with a place (free of charge) so they can assist you on Marathon Day. Your support runner will receive a finisher medal and appear in the results. They must cross the Finish Line alongside you. They only has a place in the event to support you. If you are unable to take part, their place will be cancelled. If you drop out during the event, your support runner must stay with you.
If you would like a Support Runner, The Richard Whitehead Supported Runners Project in partnership with Nissan can pair you with someone for Event Day. You can register your interest here.
