How to track London Marathon 2025 participants
Family members, friends, athletes and celebrities can be tracked using the official Marathon tracker app.
It is simple to use even for those who are not fans of technology, as you just have to hit the ‘tracking section' in the app before typing the name of the individual you want to keep tabs on.
The app will notify you each time a tracked runners hits a 5K split. It will also give you their predicted finish time, based on their current pace.
However, if the participant you want to track is carrying a phone, they may choose to share their live location which is tracked via GPS instead of the chip attached to the bib number.
