2026 TCS London Marathon: Marathon Application

DONATE

Autism Speaks TeamUp is proud to be an official charity partner of the 2026 TCS London Marathon, and we’re inviting a select group of passionate, dedicated runners to join our TeamUp community for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. The application to be considered for an entry to the 2026 TCS London Marathon is now open.

If you already have an entry and would like to fundraise for Autism Speaks, click here to get started.

With a very limited number of entries, we are looking for exceptional individuals who are not only committed to training for and completing the marathon but who will go above and beyond the fundraising minimum of $7,500 to drive our mission forward and raise the critical funds needed to help create an inclusive world where all people with autism can reach their full potential. As a valued TeamUp runner you will receive complimentary race entry, TeamUp race shirt, fundraising support, fundraising incentives, and more!

Applicants will be notified of their status on a rolling basis until all entries are filled. Please note that this is simply an application, you are not guaranteed entry to the race by completing this form. Once all entries are filled, further applicants will be added to a waiting list.

If you ALREADY HAVE AN ENTRY to the 2026 TCS London Marathon (either as a time qualifier, legacy finisher, or through the public drawing), you can still join Autism Speaks TeamUp. Since you have your own entry, you will NOT be held to the fundraising minimum like those who need an entry from our inventory are, but we ask that you fundraise a minimum of $2,500 to receive team benefits.
