"If you've ever run the Hackney Half Marathon, you'll know that despite the fact you're exerting yourself for 13.1 miles - risking chafing, blisters and sheer exhaustion along the way - somehow it still manages to be a fun, spirited, life-affirming party, thanks to the atmosphere around the course."
"This Sunday (May 17), everyone from DJs and bands to drumming troupes and choirs will be lining the route, providing upbeat and motivating tunes. But, more importantly, the Hackney streets will be swelling with crowds of spectators armed with signs, sweets and rousing cheers to spur everyone on until the end."
"Even after you've finished the race, which stretches from Hackney Marches to Hackney Downs and curves round to Victoria Park, before ending back at the Race Village at the Marshes again, you'll find that the good vibes continue. Whether you're riding high on endorphins or nursing post-race blisters, there are plenty of afterparties, freebies and perks for the determined folk wearing their medals round their necks."
"Join a party on LARDO's terrace after the Hackney Half. There'll be a Sandwich & Spritz menu available in collaboration with Allora and Italo Disco, with Italo Disco vermouth & tonic and Allora Spritz to sip on. The first 50 finishers to arrive will receive free pints of Disco Pills provided by 40 Ft Brewery."
