London Landmarks Half Marathon 2027

I’m taking part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon with Dogs Trust!

I’m running the 2027 London Landmarks Half Marathon for Dogs Trust!

The aim of Dogs Trust is to give stray and abandoned dogs a second chance at a brighter future with responsible, caring new owners. Last year, they cared for 11,707 dogs across the UK and Ireland, rehomed 9,914 dogs, and helped deliver nearly one million meals to dogs in need through Fareshare foodbanks.

Your support helps them continue this vital work, especially as the cost of living crisis adds increased pressures for dog owners.

The work of Dogs Trust is only possible with donations like yours. If you’re able to make a small contribution, I know they’d be incredibly grateful – and so would the dogs!

In loving memory of Otis.

Thank you.

My Updates

Training progress - July 2026

Having completed both couch to 5K and the Runna 5K improvement plan I am now able to comfortably run up to 10K without too much effort. The next step is to improve my pace over both those distances before moving on to the Half Marathon training in the new year.

I am also planning on doing some work at the gym once I have retired and have more free time to help improve my core strength. 

I am making good progress and I am very confident that I will be ready in time for the big event :) 

In the memory of Otis

I am doing this run in the memory of Otis who sadly died last month. While Otis was not a dog, he would have really appreciated me helping out other animals. 

I have already started training by revisiting the couch to 5K plan which I first completed in 2020. I am currently at week 6 of the current program. Once that is done, I will slowly step up the distance by around 10% a week until I can comfortably run 10K before starting on a half marathon training program to take me up to April 2027 in time for this event.

Wish me luck, and please donate for Otis and his canine friends!
