Asics London 10K 2022: When is it, what is the route, can I still enter and when can I find the results?

One of the best aesthetic 10K runs that is on offer in the UK is back, as the Asics London 10K 2022 is edging ever closer.

Around 9,000 runners are set to run 10K, or 6.2 miles next Sunday, in a race that has rave reviews online.

Like most events, the 2020 Asics 10K was called off due to the Coronavirus pandemic, and instead was held virtually with 30-year-old Joseph Turner topping the leaderboard.

The race also varies in ability, with some top end athletes taking part, but is a chance for everyone of all ability to take part.

When is the Asics London 10K 2022?

The 10K run traditionally takes place in July, with the hope of having the race in good weather. This year is no different, and will take place on Sunday, 10 July 2022.

What is the route?

The route is one of the best in the country, allowing participants to run past iconic British landmarks such as the London Eye, Houses of Parliament and more.

On the official website, they say: “Thousands of runners will wind their way through Central London together. As well as seeing some of London’s top landmarks, you’ll also run past the True Geographical Centre of London, down closed Regent Street, the Strand and Embankment, and get the best view across the river of the London Eye.”
