1. GET READY

Please sign up at least 24 hours before you intend to run so we can send you your code in time. Codes are generated once per day. Once you've received your code, you'll be able to access our half marathon Christmas lights tour on VoiceMap, an award winning audio tour app. VoiceMap gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace, and its innovative technology uses your location to play audio at exactly the right time and place, making it a hands-free experience.

​

2. ON THE DAY

Head to the start location ( theI.F.O. Birdcage, on Battle Bridge place just off Pancras Road) at a time of your choice on any day between Sunday November 26th and Friday January 5th.  Simply open the app, put your headphones on and hit "go" - you'll hear your first set of directions.

​

3. ALONG THE WAY

As you start running, your commentary will begin, guiding you through the most impressive lights that London has to offer and revealing background information and insights about what you can see along the way. Triggered by your GPS location, you'll receive more directions and commentary as you progress along the route. When we aren't guiding you or revealing the history of the lights, you will be accompanied by banging Christmas tunes!

​

4. WHEN YOU FINISH

Send us your finisher pics for our online Finisher's Gallery to immortalise your Christmas Lights Half Marathon forever! You can also choose to receive a fantastic Christmas bauble that will be sent to you on completion of the half marathon.
