Amanda leading. About 10 miles. Start 10am, finish around 12.30 (allowing time for a coffee break).  Route starts across to Peckham Rye Park then over the hill at Nunhead and down to the Waterlink Way at Ladywell Fields. Follow the off-road Waterlink Way (Nat Route 21) for nearly 2 miles to Lower Sydenham. Continue on quiet streets to Cator Park followed by a loop through Penge to Crystal Palace Park.  Check out the dinosaurs, then up the hill to Crystal Palace Parade.  Steep in places, but plenty of time to walk stretches if necessary (you will not be the only one doing this!).  Finish with a delightful run downhill back to Dulwich Park.  Route map https://goo.gl/rfUzwn
