Spectacular 10k 😜

Thoroughly enjoyed my Olympic park run - it was a touch windy in places and some sections felt tough but another 10k in the bag, and times reasonably consistent so happy with that. Captured a few pics on the way round so you can see how fab it is. The gobo lights, orbit and stadium transform the place in the dark couldn't get one of those as the sun had not set by time i finished :-)

If you are ever in London and have not been yet - add it to your tour list. I covered South Park which has Stadium, Aquatics and Orbit through to the North which is the green zone with river lea and canal and home to the Velodrome.

Next run is my local park, i fear it will be a muddy one but looking forward to see the effects of autumn

Happy running everyone x

Looks a lovely place to explore. πŸ‘πŸ»

We often forget that London does have some amazing green spaces to enjoy!😁

(unfortunately the traffic leaves a big imprint!) 🀣

I like Victoria Park in East London to run in when I am visiting my son!

It’s almost like that place was built with athletics in mind 🀣. Great running in a wonderful setting... I never realised how green it was.
