The Royal Parks Half Marathon has been held every October since 2008 and is one of Europe's most beautiful city halves, now with Oysho as headline sponsor. The closed-road route passes through four of London's eight Royal Parks, Hyde Park, Green Park, St James's Park and Kensington Gardens, and past Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square and Westminster. Golden autumn leaves, a flat profile and a strong charity spirit make it special. Afterwards, explore the South Kensington museums, the Serpentine and the Diana Memorial Fountain.
