The Hackney Half Marathon is a vibrant run in the East of London, which has been a growing to a very popular event. This will be my fourth Half Marathon and aim to improve time again, hopefully with a nice sub 1:30. Let's see how it goes, will go hard for it.
Starting in Hackney Marshes and passing through the heart of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic park, I will run through the vibrant centre of East London and pass the iconic Olympic Stadium, the Copper Box and many other olympic landmarks. https://www.virginsport.com/event/hackney-2018/hackney-half-marathon
