Retired teachers Chris Robson, 73, and his wife Charm, 72, from St Bees, Cumbria, had their house broken into while they took part in the event.
Around £60 of the sponsorship money they raised for Alzheimer's Research UK was stolen.
The couple plan to honour the money if the insurance company won't cover it.
Mr Robson told the BBC: "Charm runs much faster than I do, she's a rather fast old biddy really.
"I was overtaken by a green giraffe at mile 22 which is pretty depressing and puts one's own athletic prowess into some sort of perspective."
Mr Robson finished the marathon in 5 hours, 44 minutes. Mrs Robson completed the race in 4 hours, 45 minutes respectively.
