Where the heck is Erith? (Or even “what is it”, for that matter.) The Braintree Track Marathon got cancelled (or postponed), so I had to come up with ideas what to do on a suddenly freed-up Sunday morning. I decided to be adventurous and run new terrain as recommended in the Runner’s Guide To London. Here is the story of how I ended up in an English town that I had never heard of before, neither knew how to pronounce it.
Amongst other things, the running footage shows the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, the Cutty Sark, a nice view of Canary Wharf and last but not least, at minute 3:38, a glimpse of the Crossness Pumping Station. It is a disused Victorian sewage pumping station which has been beautifully restored and is worth a visit! By the way, the Braintree Track Marathon is now scheduled for the end of May, the week after the Helsinki Marathon. Hm, really would have preferred to have it out of the way by now.
