Went out for a little 5km, well that was the plan.

We got the tube to Westfield at Stratford and had a spot of lunch then planned to have a tootle around the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. I was there for my Half Marathon last week and was surprised how buzzing it was. Had a look on the website and there are lots of little trails all around.

By the time we got there the sun was shining and we fancied a walk by the canal so off we trotted down to the Hereford Union canal and just kept going all the way to Canary Wharf. It was lovely, we had to keep jumping out of the way for people on bikes. Some were really nice slowed down and said excuse me politely and some just came at us at speed and rang there bells.

By the time we had got to Canary Wharf we had hit 10km on my garmin watch, so we stopped and treated ourselves to a half of cold cider before heading home. I do love sunny walks in London.

Hope you all had a good day.

I still remember being at the Olympic Park in 2012 when I was part of the paralympic coaching team. It certainly is a nice place for a walk.
