Whether participating or spectating, benefit from these free wellness-inspired perks city-wide when you flash your London Marathon medal. From hot and cold baths to protein-filled refuels and bike rides, don’t miss out on these post-run freebies.
Ice baths
Lumi Therapy, in partnership with Gymshark, is offering all race finishers a complimentary ice bath on the event day for post-race recovery. If you are brave enough to plunge your aching body into an ice bath find them at Gymshark’s flagship store at 165 Regent Street, W1S 3BE.
Bike rides
Brompton is offering spectators free bike hire for the full London Marathon day, so you can see the action from every point of the city. Just email [email protected] with the bib number of a loved one to get a code for a complimentary Brompton bike hire.
Bath products
Lush, the cosmetics company, is giving away a Cold Water Soother Epsom salt cube and Wiccy Magic Muscles solid massage oil to help ease tired post-run muscles. Claim yours at Oxford Street, Paddington Station, Waterloo Station, and Victoria Station branches. Show your medal to staff between April 21 to 28.
Protein shakes
While one of the popular boot camp classes might not be on the menu post-run, if you head to Barry’s SW1 studio by Victoria station, they will be hosting a London Marathon afterparty on Sunday afternoon until 5pm. It’s free to drop in, and you get a free protein shake to aid in your recovery when you flash your medal.
Steaks
Protein is essential for muscle repair, especially after an intense workout. Heliot Steak House is offering runners a free Argentinian Rib Eye Steak or burger if they flash their medals on London Marathon race day or the Monday after. Find it at the Hippodrome Casino in Leicester Square near the finish line.
