Introduction

London's Transport Race is a transport event with a difference. A few times a year, we run a race around London - but with absolutely no running allowed! Teams of two or three compete to visit six stations (one each in of Travelcard Zones 1-6) and a London landmark in the fastest time over the course of a day - and there's additional optional challenges too to rack up plenty of bonus points!

The challenges start and finish at Central London locations, and usually last between six and eight hours depending on the routes chosen! There'll be prizes up for grabs for the quickest time to complete the challenge, as well as for the most bonus points collected. We'll also award our coveted 'Most Inspiring Team' prize, as well as other spot prizes at the discretion of the team!
