I ran this by myself last week and really enjoyed it. I'd fancied doing the bridges for some time now and this seemed perfect. It starts by the big sundial next to the tube station and the directions are pretty good I felt. No wrong turns by me. I will say that once around Battersea the directions went wrong (my phone or the app caused it?), but after a few minutes fiddling around I got back on track. There's talking every couple of minutes so if it stops have a look at the app. You can't set a pb on this course, it's purely a running based tour. I do recommend it and will do others by these guys.
