It amazes me how large green spaces that are well kept are located in the middle of London. And they sure do love their outdoor spaces, and rightfully so. In the springtime {and summertime, I would imagine}, they are beautiful--lush with greenery, bright florals, and openness to sit, picnic, play, sun, read, or sport {as they call exercise}.
One park that we've recently discovered and one that I adore is Battersea Park, located in the borough of Wandsworth just south of the river. Compared to Kensington Gardens, Battersea Park seems slightly smaller and has more trees and flowers to admire and, the best part: a zoo!
Here are photos from our 4-mile run last night. We have a 5-mile run with some friends on Saturday in Regent's Park that I'm slightly worried about, so we're doing some last minute training this week ;).
