Run the BUPA London 10,000 for WaterAid!

We would love to have you on the WaterAid team for 2010. The race takes place on the 31 May 2010. You can enter by applying for a WaterAid place or directly through the BUPA London 10,000 website. Please let us know if you already have your own place as we would love to have you on the team.

The 10k circuit incorporates some of the Olympic Marathon circuit that will be used in the 2012 games, starting on the Mall and finishing in front of Buckingham Palace!
 
By running for WaterAid every step you take will ensure that some of the world's poorest people will gain access to life saving clean water, sanitation and hygiene education.

WaterAid has 36 places available for the BUPA London 10,000 race. We are asking our participants to raise a minimum fundraising target of £375 (excluding a £20 non refundable registration fee) in return for lots of support along the way.

Congratulations to our 2009 runners!

The second BUPA London 10,000 race, on 25 May 2009, was a great success with 61 WaterAid runners competing with over 12,000 others.

The team did a brilliant job! Not only in completing the 10km course around central London but with a fantastic fundraising target of £20,000, which will go towards WaterAid's invaluable work in 17 countries around the world.

We would like to give a huge thanks to all of our runners and supporters who made this possible.
