Last night was the first of the 2019 LSE summer run club, 12 students turned up all raring to go on our run tour of the capital. Before setting off the group was given an option of in choosing the direction to run left towards Tower Bridge or right towards parliament square? They choose towards Tower Bridge. We started with some dynamic warm ups getting them ready for the journey ahead. We set off by running along the side of the Royal Courts of Justice then headed towards the Victoria Embankment with some people dodging while trying to keep the group together. Our first major obstacle came at Blackfriars Bridge due to the ongoing construction work, it took us a while to cross the street but all eventually got across and headed to the Victoria Embankment towards tower bridge. While running along we were able to take in the view of the iconic buildings along the Southbank. We crossed Tower Bridge and ran along the river back to the Hungerford bridge then down to temple before returning to LSE where we did some squats to Moby's bring Sally Up. Followed by some stretches and a group photo.

• Tower of London
