DJ to Spin Decks While Running London Marathon for Charity

Most people need a day to recover after running a marathon. Mozey plans to DJ through his.

The drum & bass artist is aiming to set a brand new Guinness World Record by becoming the first person to DJ while completing the London Marathon's full 26.2-mile course. He'll carry specially designed DJ decks in a harness while running, needing to finish in under five hours to qualify for the record.

This isn't Mozey's first rodeo with extreme endurance challenges. He's an experienced ultra-marathon and Ironman runner who once completed four marathons in four weeks, with a personal best time of around four hours.

But here's where it gets truly ambitious. The London Marathon takes place the morning after his sold-out headline show at Troxy in London. Instead of resting after performing for 2,000 fans, he'll head straight to the start line with his DJ equipment and a small sound system.

"Playing a headline show to 2,000 people and then waking up to run a marathon while DJing might not be the smartest idea I've ever had," Mozey admitted. "But if it raises money for an amazing charity and gives people something fun to get behind, it's worth it."

Why This Inspires

Every mile Mozey runs supports Make-A-Wish UK, the charity that grants wishes for children facing critical illnesses. To boost donations, he's offering unique fan experiences through a raffle, including a private DJ set in someone's living room and personalized video messages.

The record attempt transforms what could be a solo athletic achievement into something that directly helps kids who need hope most. By combining his passion for music with endurance running, Mozey is showing how creative thinking can amplify charitable impact.

This isn't just about breaking a record. It's about using talent, determination, and a little bit of crazy to make sick children's wishes come true.
