About
This is a longer run taking in some of North East London's green spaces.
Starting from Wanstead Park overground/rail station (accessible from a couple overground lines and Lizzy line at Forest Gate) we'll traverse through the tracks and ponds of Wanstead Flats, Wanstead Park, Bush Wood, Leyton Flats, Gilbert's Slade, bit of Epping Forest (Woodford) and back down into the other side of Wanstead Flats, finishing back at Wanstead Park station.
This is a really autumnal place to run, generally forest tracks rather than muddy, but there will be some mud for sure at this time. A real urban trail running adventure.
Distance: 13.5 miles / 22km
*Note: we'll take plenty of breaks, we'll take it slow. There is Wanstead Park cafe in case anyone needs top up of things. Most importantly - if 22km feels too much for you, this route has plenty of places where you could jump off for another station (such as Redbridge and Wood Street).
Gear: Trail shoes are recommended because we'll be running on grassy and woody paths, plus a bit of pavement. No bag drop. Bring water and snacks! You'll get a can of Tenzing too.
Meet: Outside Wanstead Park Overground/Rail Station.
Pace: Usually 7:30mins/km but group dependent and with breaks, so set aside 3 hours.
Please cancel if you can no longer make it or DM on @ne_london_mrp / @01010011steele
