This unusual half marathon is the perfect way to get fit and run through some of London's most beautiful parks.

Starting in Hyde Park, the half marathon goes through St James' Park, Green Park and Kensington Gardens, before heading back to Hyde Park for the finish. Landmarks to watch out for along the way include Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye.
