The inaugural ASICS LDNX made it’s mark this weekend as the streets of Wembley were transformed in just a matter of hours, from Coldplay to the closed roads of London’s newest 10k. With blue skies, thousands of participants, and a finish line party to remember, the debut edition proved to be a high-energy celebration of movement, music, and community spirit.
The event began with a one of a kind start line experience featuring an epic light show and powered by high-energy music to set the tone for the miles ahead. From there, participants took to the streets of Wembley, running past iconic landmarks before making their way down the renowned Olympic Way, crossing the finish beneath the striking backdrop of the Wembley Arch
Leading the way on the day were Alex Carter (31mins 26s) from Team Bath AC and Emily Marchant (36mins 12s) from Swansea Harriers, crossing the finish line marking the opening course records.

In a nod to Wembley’s legendary music roots, finishers were treated to a post-event party at Boxpark headlined by a live Oasis tribute act – fresh from the UK leg of the iconic band’s first world tour since reuniting after 16 years – with massive anthems and a Wembley singalong that kept the celebrations going long after the final participant crossed the line.
Andrew Smith, CEO, A.S.O. UK said “The first-ever ASICS LDNX 10K has exceeded all expectations. To see thousands take to the streets of Wembley and experience the unique mix of sport, music and community we set out to create was incredible. From the energy at the start line to the celebrations at the finish, this event has shown the potential to become a real highlight in London’s running calendar, and we’re excited to build on this momentum for years to come.”
The event, supported by title partner ASICS, brought together runners from across London, the UK, and beyond – from first-timers to seasoned athletes – united by a shared goal: to be part of the first-ever ASICS LDNX 10K.
