The Brighton Marathon is one of the most glorious and picturesque marathons on the calendar.

With a stunning coastal backdrop, the Brighton marathon takes you around one of the country's most vibrant and diverse cities.

Renowned for its buzzing atmosphere and roaring crowd support, the course winds through the city streets, along the glorious seafront and finishes at Hove Lawns, the perfect post race location for a well deserved ice cream!

Fundraising target of £400 and just £25 registration fee! *

* We want everybody that wants to participate in The Brighton Marathon 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.
