Mile 6 at the Cutty Sark in Greenwich is a must. The runners are still fresh, the costumes are pristine, and the crowd is already ferocious. The historic ship creates a natural amphitheater, so the cheers bounce right off the river and hit you like a wave.
You’ll see a man dressed as a rhino high-fiving a nun, and a woman in a tutu absolutely flying. It’s chaotic in the best way. Plus, you can grab a bacon sandwich from a nearby café while you scream your lungs out—multitasking at its finest.
Why This Spot Wins
Because the narrow streets make the crowd feel ten feet tall. When you cheer here, it’s personal. Runners will hear your individual shout and grin, and that’s a tiny victory for both of you.
