Event overview

The Standard Chartered Great City Race is London’s premier 5K corporate running event.

The event is the ideal opportunity for colleagues to connect as teams outside of the work setting and take on an enjoyable running challenge in the heart of the capital. Held in the evening, the event features a stunning course that passes some of London’s most recognisable landmarks, from St Paul’s Cathedral to the Bank of England.

The Standard Chartered Great City Race was last held as both a mass and virtual event on Tuesday 20 July 2021, the former being the first mass participation running event to be held on the streets of London since the outbreak of Covid-19.
