Sports events in London this week
Things to do rather than things to watch, mostly: skating, swimming outdoors all year, bowling, darts and the walks long enough to count. The spectator fixtures that are free from the pavement, the marathon and the Boat Race among them, are here too.
What to expect
23 listings filed under Sport. The busiest rooms are Alexandra Palace, Electric Ballroom and Hyde Park. Concentrated in Shoreditch, Mayfair and Alexandra Palace.

Sport Free
Dogs on Hampstead Heath
Eight hundred acres, off lead almost everywhere, and the one swimming pond dogs are allowed in is not one of the bathing ponds. Busiest at the Parliament Hill end on a weekend morning.

Sport From £4.50
Swimming in the Hampstead mixed pond
Open all year, lifeguarded, and colder than you are expecting from about October. The men's and ladies' ponds keep their own hours and their own rules.
