Running Challenge

London

10K (6.21 miles)

Sun 26th Sept 2027

2027 Vitality 10,000 places are now available.

Ready to take on 10K in the heart of London? Join Team OCD-UK at the 2027 Vitality London 10,000 and run through the capital while raising money to support children, adults and families affected by OCD.

Starting and finishing in the heart of central London, this closed-road scenic route takes you past some of the city’s most famous landmarks, including Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and finishes right outside Buckingham Palace!

OCD-UK has a limited number of guaranteed charity places, meaning no ballot or waiting around - just secure your place, start fundraising and look forward to race day. Our charity places cost £20 to register, with a minimum fundraising target of £200.

You won’t be doing it alone. When you join Team OCD-UK, we’ll be here to support you throughout your fundraising journey, with ideas and encouragement along the way.

Take on the Vitality London 10,000, challenge yourself and support for a cause worth running for!

Please email us at fundraising@ocduk.org if you have any questions about running for OCD-UK.

* We want everybody that wants to participate in the Vitality London 10,000 wearing their OCD-UK running top with pride. So if the registration fee would be a barrier for you to run for OCD-UK then please get in touch and we will do all we can to facilitate your participation.

What’s the difference between a charity place and an own place?

Charity place:
If you have not entered the ballot in the official event, or if you did enter and have been contacted to say you were unsuccessful in the ballot results, then this option it for you. OCD-UK has guaranteed charity places and therefore by clicking ‘Charity Place’ you will be offered a guaranteed place in the event. We ask for a registration fee to be paid and once we receive this we will send you a welcome pack which will include an OCD-UK fundraising T-shirt.

Own place:
If you have entered the ballot in the official event, via their own website, and they have contacted you to say you have a place in the event, then this option is for you. By clicking on ‘Own place’ you are choosing to fundraise for OCD-UK, and you will be taken through the steps to create your fundraising account. OCD-UK will take some details so we can send you a welcome pack in the post with an OCD-UK fundraising T-shirt. This option is free because you already have a place and we don't request any minimum fundraising amount.
