Pace Practice - Reading Circular, 15 miles, strenuous

Join Georgia and Will for a 15 mile pace practice walk around Reading. Starting at Reading Station, we will take in the scenic views of the Thames Path to Shiplake, where we will divert off the Thames Path, through some woodlands North of Reading and then circling back through Caversham.

This walk is a good opportunity to try out the walking pace required to complete the 25 mile August challenge linked here: https://www.berkshirewalkers.co.uk/event/25-miles-for-25-years-25-miles-strenuous/?instance_id=4543

For this walk we may vary the pace depending on group size and ability.

Start time: 10am at Reading Station North Side (Caversham side).

Estimated End Time: 4pm (dependent on pace) at Reading Station.

Transport

If you plan to drive, the recommended place to park is the car park on the north side of Reading station, where parking fees apply. As this is a circular walk, we will return to Reading Station at the end of the walk.

Additional info

Please note: As this is a pace practice walk, we will aim to be walking at a pace of around 3mph. Please bring a packed lunch and water, as this walk will have a short lunch stop included.
