The 2022 London Marathon was the 42nd running of the annual London Marathon on 2 October 2022. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the race was postponed from April until October to maximise the chances of a mass participation event. The elite men's and women's event were won by Kenyan Amos Kipruto and Ethiopian Yalemzerf Yehualaw respectively. The wheelchair races were won by Swiss athletes Marcel Hug and Catherine Debrunner respectively, both in course record times. Over 40,000 people finished the mass participation event.

In August 2021, the 2022 London Marathon was postponed from April until October, to increase the chances that such a large event could be held safely during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was the third successive year that the race has been held in autumn. The 2023 event is scheduled to be held in April.[1] In the United Kingdom, the event was broadcast on the BBC. Every race since 1981 has been televised on the BBC, and in June 2022, it won the rights to broadcast the race until 2026.[2]

The winner of the men's and women's elite races each received $55,000. Prize money was also on offer for breaking a course record or beating a pre-specified time, and the total prize fund for each race was $313,000.[3] The prize money for the wheelchair races was increased for 2022, with the winners receiving $35,000, an increase of $10,000 from the previous year. $20,000 and $15,000 was awarded to the competitors who finish second and third respectively, and for the first time the top 10 finishers all received prize money. The total prize fund for each of the wheelchair races was $199,500.[4]

Course

The marathon distance is officially Шаблон:Convert long as sanctioned by World Athletics (IAAF).[5] The London Marathon is run over a mainly flat course, starting in Blackheath.[6] The course begins at three separate points and they converge just before Шаблон:Convert into the race.[7] At just after Шаблон:Convert into the race, the runners reach the 19th-century clipper Cutty Sark docked in Greenwich[8] and at about halfway into the race, the runners cross Tower Bridge[9] before heading east into Shadwell and Canary Wharf.[6] After winding through Canary Wharf, the route returns through Shadwell on the other side of the road to which it entered before passing through Tower Hill.[9] The runners enter the underpass in Blackfriars before running along the Thames Embankment, past Westminster and onto Birdcage Walk.[9][6] The course then runs parallel to St James's Park before turning onto The Mall and finishing in front of Buckingham Palace.[9][6]
