How it works
Charities hold guaranteed entries to the TCS Sydney Marathon. You apply to a charity from the official list and agree to raise its fundraising minimum.
Charities outside Australia mostly ask for about $3,000 to $4,000 (UK charities about 1,800 to 2,000 pounds). Australian charities do not publish an amount on the official list.
