Running Routes
« on: May 30, 2012, 10:26:32 PM »
Someone was asking for running route late last year. Actually I have been running regularly for years around here, there are three routes -
1) 10K route - from Virginia Quay to the left, and turn left again to the Preston's RD all the way down to the Iles of Dogs, then up to the Westferry Circus, then back
2) 10K route - from Virginia Quay to the right, up Lower Lea Crossing and all the way (good 3km) to Factory Road, then turn back from the end of Factory Road
3) 17K route - from Virginia Quay to the right, up Lower Lea Crossing and all the way to Factory Road, then continue through Albert Road to Woolwich Manor Road, at the end of it, turn left to A13, then turn left to Prince Regent Ln, then from Victoria Dock Rd all the way back to Virginia Quay

Of course, you can just run around the Virginia Quay, that's around 1.2k per circle  ;D
1) and 2) are good for regular 10k runs; 3) really is for half marathon training. I personally perfer 2) and 3), both great routes!

Enjoy and have fun!  :D
