Running in Richmond Park
Yesterday Karim and me went running a
nice 26km in
Richmond
Park, located in South-West London (zone 4). With a surface of
10km
2, it's 4 times a big as Hyde Park and Kensington
Gardens together ! As a matter of fact the main running loop is
twice longer (11.5km).
This park is a really great place to run, with sand tracks running
in the meadows, the ferns and the woods. We even saw a deer, which
are quite common apparently. People are pretty more friendly and
talkative there than in Hyde Park.
With 16km on Saturday, that's just 42km in the week-end
. I will
now start to reduce the training volume during the 3 weeks
remaining before the Amsterdam Marathon.
