LGN provides in-house Run Clubs to clients such as Jones Lang LaSalle, Coca Cola, M&C Saatchi, BP, Investec et al, with such presitgious clients we therefore do not measure with inaccurate GPS, oh no, instead we use calibrated measuring wheels to create our courses and then pay to have them officially measured and accredited by UK Athletics approved organisation AIMS.
Like bobsleigh champs doing their pre race track prep LGN realise our runners need to mentally prepapre and thus we are very happy to provide all 10km competitors with a 1980's a-ha video style photo story and old skool map of our Regents Park race course.
LGN use measuring wheels not GPS to measure our routes
The tarmac crease line is your 10km start line
Head straight down the long path until you have this 180 degree turn
This is the view as you now run up the other side towards the lady with the shopping bags
After 100m you will turn right at this fork
You will eventually come to this path junction, run straight ahead to the family group
Again after 100m you will take the right fork, keeping the water on your right
Hug the fence and just keep going straight
You will go straight over this junction
Keep going straight ignoring the first right hand turn
But you do take the second right turn option
Keep going straight, hugging the fence again
And then get ready for a sharp 180 degree left hand turn
At the end of the path you will turn left
And at then turn right at the junction by the bins
Your view as you turn right at the bins and head towards the man in the red jumper
At the next junction take the hard right turn
After turning right this will be your view
And at the end go left and then immediately right into the main Broadwalk path
Welcome to the Broadwalk, you will now run straight down
And then take the path on the left just before the pedestrian crossing
After 200m you take the left path at the junction above
Keep going straight over the next crossing
And then right at the monument
Followed by a right with a delightful downhill
At the bottom of the hill you simply follow the path left and back up
This is your view as you turn to head back up the hill
Turning left at the top of the hill as you approach the Zoo
As you approach the monument again turn right by the lady in orange
Then take the right fork
And keep hugging the path right and get ready to run alongside London Zoo
You now run straight down alongside the Zoo (this path has now been enlarged)
At the end you will prepare to take the 2nd left path option
This is your view as you take the left turn
At the end of the path you will have completed you first lap of two - now turn right to start your second lap
We wont repeat the entire 2nd loop, but this will be your view as you start it again and prepare for that devilsih 180 left hand degree turn, now repeat the same loop....
...and at end of lap 2 as you arrive back at this junction, you take the left hand turn
And the left turn gives you a beautiful 200m sprint kick opprtunity to the finish line
The tree on the left hand side represents the finish line!
