Course
Point-to-point from Blackheath and Greenwich Park through south-east London, over Tower Bridge just before halfway, out to Canary Wharf and the Isle of Dogs, then back along the Thames past the Tower, Embankment and Big Ben to finish on The Mall. Flat and fast after a downhill opening; the crowds are continuous from Greenwich to the finish.
