The 2025 London Marathon has received a record number of applications, with more than 840,000 entries, surpassing the previous year's 578,000. The increase in female applicants from 43% to 49% is notable, approaching gender parity for the first time.
Runners joke that securing a place in the London Marathon is tougher than participating, with over 410,000 entering the ballot last year. Those who applied will know by July 2025 if they secured a spot, with charity places and additional chances available.
