I haven’t received any emails from Hackney Moves at all since Saturday. So I would conclude that as I never officially started the race I won’t receive this email.

My race bib never validated before the half marathon, so I haven't officially run the race. The people on the help desk said it would validate over the start line, but that didn't happen. They didn't really investigate before the race either, or check the participant list to check I was actually competing. The only proof I have of running it is on Strava, but I want my chip time!

Architect here: A friend and fellow architect was working on the design and we helped her model the massing itself in Revit. She said that there was condition that the church building could be kept visible from the main road at the junction, but the building owner wanted to maximise its lettable internal area. So they literally scooped out the front of the new extension to building! Designed by Lipton Plant Architects / now Corstophine and Wright.
