Tusk will be cheering another team across the finish line in the London Marathon 2026 on Sunday 26th April.

Each April, the Tusk Team of intrepid runners take on the London Marathon. Our 2026 team will join the crowds again on Sunday 26th April 2026, running to raise money for African conservation. Places are now filled for 2026, but if you would like to be added to the waiting list for 2027, please get in touch.

The London Marathon is one of the most iconic marathons in the world, passing by many London landmarks and finishing on the Mall outside Buckingham Palace. It is known for the incredibly supportive crowd, who cheer you on the entire way and encourage you to get to the finish line. 

In 2025, we had 31 runners who raised over a phenomenal £50,000 for Tusk! In 2026, we hope we can smash 2025’s fundraising total!

If you’re passionate about African conservation and would love the chance to run this epic event for Tusk in 2027, please contact lauren@tusk.org as soon as possible for more information.
