After passing Buckingham Palace runners will continue towards Westminster and the Houses of Parliament before turning onto Whitehall.

Once at the corner of Trafalgar Square the route continues up the Strand and back before heading down The Mall a second time.

Then it's back through Green Park to Hyde Park where the rest of the route will take place before the end at the Royal Albert Hall.
