Last big #RaceAgainstHunger training walk today, b4 solo walk of full Marathon course on 2/4 for @TrussellTrust. Today doing 2nd half of course from Tower Hill, East around Docks then West to The Mall. Add on 2 miles to Baker Street and that’s 16-17 miles. trusselltrust.enthuse.com/pf/neil-tester… London Marathon course map.

Do I have to walk this bit backwards? Street sign: Milligan Street E14.

About to put these on for a @TrussellTrust #RaceAgainstHunger training walk, chosen in my Twitter poll. Before the 12 miles from the Marathon course start on Blackheath to the Shard via Woolwich, I’ll do 8 miles from Euston to Blackheath. Bring on 2 April.
