Reading sits at the junction of the Thames and the Kennet, which means flat, traffic-free paths in multiple directions from almost anywhere in the city. The Thames towpath at Caversham runs in both directions without any hills, and the Kennet and Avon Canal towpath gives you more of the same heading west out toward Newbury. Prospect Park has a flat loop through open parkland close to the town centre, while Palmer Park gives you another park option on the eastern side. Ready to race further? Try 10K runs in Reading.
