This year, Hackney Moves takes place across three days to bring a full long weekend of races, culture and entertainment. Friday is opening day, with a reggae sounds DJ set taking place on the main stage from 3pm and sunset yoga from Morning Gloryville.
Dozens of warm-ups, bootcamp-style classes and family fitness sessions take place on the main stage and in the Hackney Fitness House across the weekend - check out the full spectathlete guidde at limelightsports.
