We’re hosting a Runners Breakfast with New Balance on Saturday 28th March

We’re taking over Hackney Road's Knees Up cafe to host a special breakfast event for London’s running community.

We’ll be opening the doors at 10am, which will follow an optional 10km run led by Run the Boroughs that starts at 08.45 am.

Celebrating the best food of London’s diverse boroughs, we’ve enlisted homely Malaysian kitchen Eastern Platters, plant-based Indian eatery En Root and West African & Caribbean fusion caterers The Suya Pit to serve up bespoke breakfast items catered to the protein-rich runner’s diet.

There’ll also be charms and goodies courtesy of Flower Head and Flavia Studio and cool down sessions running across the morning, soundtracked by sets by Selassie TBC, Dare Balogun and Norsicaa.
