1:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Location
Watermead Country Park, Leicester
In honour of Paul’s memory and love of all things walking and canals and the great outdoors we’re heading to Watermead Park. Many of us were on the last walk with him here too so it will have nice memories and a chance to share too.
It wont be a massive 16-30 miles like he could do but we won’t stop those able from walking back either. A memory to get us thinking… How he always went at the pace and distance of those he was with…
Location: Watermead Park! We start in the south with nature trails, mammoths and even a rope bridge if we can find it.
Start Point:
- Bus: Haymarket bus station 12:10 for the 5 bus or
- Making own way: 1pm Watermead Country Park, SOUTH carpark Alderton Close, LE4 7RN https://w3w.co/winner.gloves.wipes
Pace : Medium pace and no one left behind even if we become two groups!
Distance: As far as you’d like around the park, decided on the day and for the crazy big walkers you can walk back along the canal!
