Highway to Hackney 2025

Get ready to conquer the Hackney Half with our revamped Highway to Hackney series – now elevated for an even better experience.

Join us for six dynamic Wednesdays, featuring specialised sessions designed to boost your race fitness. Soak up the good vibes, camaraderie, and a shared commitment to race-day readiness.

Meet us every Wednesday at SOAR HQ, with a secure bag drop available from 6:20 pm, and the run kicking off promptly at 6:45 pm.

We’re thrilled to introduce Lloyd Kempson as our new coach. With his wealth of experience and sharp coaching style, Lloyd will provide the guidance, insight, and focus you need to get race-ready, no matter your goal.

The Highway to Hackney is tailored for two groups:

• Runners aiming for 1:40 or faster

• Runners targeting 1:45+

Whether you’re chasing a personal best or taking on your first half marathon, you’ll have the support and camaraderie to excel.

This series is entirely free, and we’ll unveil each week’s session details every Monday.
