The nation’s leading middle-distance runners are invited to test themselves over the iconic mile distance on the roads of central London at the 2026 Vitality Westminster Mile on Saturday 26 September which will again host a special British Milers Club (BMC) race. 

 For the first time since 2019, the British Athletics One Mile Road Race Championships will be incorporated into the British Milers’ Club (BMC) Bannister Mile which has been held at the event since 2024.  

The BMC Westminster Mile gives athletes looking to round off the summer season the rare opportunity to run an official mile road race with the Vitality Westminster Mile course starting on The Mall and finishing in front of Buckingham Palace. 

 Joe Wigfield holds the course record having dipped under the four-minute barrier in 2024 (3:58) and again in 2025 (3:59) as part of the BMC Bannister Mile. He remains the only person to run under this time, first set by Roger Bannister in 1954, in the 12-year history of the event. The current female course record was set by Katie Snowden in 2024 (4:23).  

 The bar has been set for 2026, with pacemakers again employed to give the field the best chance to run a sub-four minute mile around the historic loop of St James’s Park.   The BMC women’s race will also have pacemakers with the aim of running inside 4:20. 

 The Vitality Westminster Mile is open to BMC members aiming for faster than 4:50 men or 5:34 women. To enter and for more information click here. 

 There will be prize money available for first (£1,000), second (£500) and third (£250) in the men’s and women’s race. 

 The Vitality Westminster Mile was launched by London Marathon Events in partnership with Westminster City Council in 2013 as a legacy event from the 2012 Olympic Games. It includes miles for all ages and abilities, including families, adults and veterans, juniors, elite athletes and wheelchair users.
