The Flora London marathon 2009

April 2009

Congratulations to all those who completed the 2008 Flora London Marathon.

London Marathon

The Flora London marathon is one of the UK's greatest sporting events and we would love you to be part of it! In 2008 St John Ambulance had 200 runners taking part, in what was a fun and entertaining day and between them they raised over £220,000 in sponsorship for our life saving work.

Our support

In return for running for us we will provide you with:

  • A fundraising and training pack
  • A running vest and iron on name letters

    Many thanks to you for the faultless organisation of everything to do with the marathon, your regular newsletters which were well received and your post race hospitality which was excellent. I'd also like to pass on my thanks to the St John Ambulance Volunteers who treated me at the finish line. I took a tumble at 17 miles getting past a wheelchair so needed patching up.
