I presume Longboardcory that you mean a marathon that starts in say Camberley, and finishes in say Guildford. Or marathons of the type which Boardfreedave (here and here) did from John-O-Groats to Lands End, followed by his Boarding across Australia. Forgive me if I misread this.
From an Inline Roller Skating point of view, there are only three organised Marathons in the country this year. Goodwood Roller Marathon, the London Inline Marathon and the North Region Inline Marathon. All of these take place on circuits, so naturally finish at the same place as they start. As established previously, you can enter Goodwood. You can't enter the London, and I don't know about the North Region, but I would think it unlikely. There may be unofficial street marathons that take place.
The only other event of this type I know of is the London to Brighton Cycle Run, which for a few years has been joined (officially or unofficially) by Inline Skaters. Indeed, our Dogsbody is doing this event this year for charity. I'm sure he can fill us in on the details of distance and height of ascending/descending skate. It will be a tough event. You may be able to Longboard this. It's a public road so as far as I can tell, you can't be prevented.
