Organiser's Description

On this brand new Secret London Runs running tour, you will run between some of the places linked to London's literary legends around the London Bridge area.

See locations that inspired the works of Dickens and Shakespeare, visit the home of Bridget Jones (it was of course, a book first) and discover the site from which Chaucer's pilgrims set off in April 1386.

In addition to these literary legends, your guide - book loving enthusiast Josh - is excited to share some of his favourite novels and their links to this iconic area, just South of the River Thames.

Pace
Gentler than 11 minute miles - join this tour if you’re worried about pace. No one gets left behind, and we will introduce some short walking intervals to the tour, alongside gentle jogging, if anyone is struggling.
