Kirsty Jul 2016 8:17pm, 19 Jul 2016 887 posts	0 Kirsty Fulham Palace is extremely flat, 3 laps all on tarmac and has a nice café. Mile End is not exactly flat, it has a few tiny hills. It is an out and back (twice) and has a nice coffee van. Both have nice views of a river or canal.

At the moment Mr J is not confident with even small hills, so Fulham Palace looking the better option at the moment, although it's a few weeks away so he'll have built up more stamina and confidence by then so we'll see. Yes, the proximity of river/canal was a factor in considering those two

Corona Jul 2016 1:02pm, 20 Jul 2016 3965 posts	0 Corona No, it was revealed to be short a long, long time ago - It was accepted to be short a few weeks ago. I heard it has been adjusted but not by enough!
jennyh Jul 2016 4:50pm, 20 Jul 2016 702 posts	0 jennyh I didn't realise that, have just looked on their web page now and seen its been remeasured. Are people still saying it's short Corona?
Kirsty Jul 2016 5:14pm, 20 Jul 2016 888 posts	0 Kirsty The hills are truly tiny, nothing to worry about!
