Race Overview
It’s Race Week for London’s 13th Bloomberg Square Mile Relay taking place at Guildhall Yard on Thursday evening.
Team captains will need to arrive in the Race Village at 5:15pm, with the rest of the team before 5:45pm to allow enough time to pass through the security check on the way to Bag Drop. At 6.10pm there will be an Official Race Briefing, followed by the Official Warm-up at 6.30pm, before the race starts at 6.45pm.
All runners should check out the online TEAM RACE PACK, and don’t forget to download our RACE APP that gives you all the information you need, including your team’s LIVE lap times!
Hospitality will be open to everyone in the Race Village – runners will receive a meal, dessert and five alcoholic or soft drinks as part of their team entry, but additional food and drink will also be available for supporters to purchase either online, or on event day, so your colleagues and friends can also join in the fun – this is an evening not to be missed!
If you have any queries please contact us on +44 (0) 207 240 7700 or email [email protected]

The Course
Set amidst London’s infamous Square Mile runners challenge each other for position as they navigate tight turns, sharp bends, and flights of stairs on this unique one mile (1.6km) route, synonymous with the Bloomberg Square Mile Relay. The stunning skyline provides a dramatic backdrop to the race course that challenges returning runners on the start line, but also offers a unique, fun and exciting race for first-time participants. Check out the route that runners took for the 12th Bloomberg Square Mile Relay in London earlier this year.

London - The Extra Mile
The Extra Mile helps participants of the Bloomberg Square Mile Relay contribute to their city in a bigger, better way. We are delighted to be working with Greenhouse Sports as The Extra Mile Partner in 2019.
Simply by participating in the race, 25% of your team’s race fee will be donated to invest in projects delivered by Greenhouse Sports in London. The best part is, you get to help choose where those funds go by choosing a cause you care about, and running for it. When you complete your personal profile on our website you will choose one of three causes to run for, from Inclusion, Education or Empowering Women & Girls. Then, on race night, your lap in the Bloomberg Square Mile Relay won’t just be for your team, but for your Extra Mile cause too.
The cause with the quickest average time will win a minimum donation of US$20,000. Funds will be used to address the winning cause across a year-long project. Find out more about Greenhouse Sports and the causes you can choose here.
