Running 26.2 Miles is no easy task. And neither is navigating a city hosting tens-of-thousands of athletes making the journey all at the same time this Sunday. That’s why Taskers are lending Londoners—runners or not—a helping hand.
This week, dozens of lucky marathoners across London have been treated to a touch of Tasker help in preparation for the big race, receiving goody bags of energy gel packs, lucozade and sweat bands.

But #thejoyofdone provided by Taskers doesn’t stop there. Taskrabbit is seeing a number of trending tasks booked by Londoners who are anticipating a hectic city leading up to and after the race. Tasks like “pick up last-minute gel packs for my sister,” “deliver a carb-loading meal on Saturday night” and “pack and deliver to me a marathon survival bag at the end of the race” are just a few tasks booked to help London Town get things done.
London, keep sharing your favorite tasks on twitter #thejoyofdone. And good luck on Sunday!
