4 miles to Victoria park. Don't tell your boyfriend , just hide the bags at the back of the wardrobe , give it 2 weeks then say "oh I've had these for a while" You are not lying.
Security entrance to the Olympic site.
A french person being funny.
Magic skateboarding feet.
I thought that this was a funny person doing the Fosbury Flop high jump thing but of course I see now that it is a hand whisk.
The Fantasmo apparently.Very big feet.Like boats.
Another sticky person.
This is young persons speak for I'm ready for a nice cup of tea.
Punch and Judy.
Funfair detail from the punch and judy piece.
more
That building wasn't there last time I came to Vicky park , must be 1 Bishopsgate.
Lovely Vicky park .

6 miles down past the Olympics again.Flat,grey, rainy day. Not a lot to see until I came upon these sticky people who I think are new.
There's not much to them but they are very expressive.
Wake up world?
Its a shame someone crap has gone and sprayed all over the top of them.
But it makes them look like you have discovered them while peeking through a bush.
Family of sticky people
Move over Lowry
There's a new sticky painter in town.

4.5 miles up to Tottenham again. Maybe I have been watching too many surfing movies but I love this.If I bring my skateboard next time it will be like big wave surfing out at Mavericks.I came back to photograph some graffiti that I saw in progress but it wasn't good and I was embarrassed to photograph it.

New stuff that was being finished.I can't work out what it is supposed to say
I need a lesson in graffiti appreciation
I love this little cityscape
I never learnt Latin but I think this means The Nature of Poetry or the Art of Poetry in the cities or of the city. Come on Latin lovers , enlighten me.
They like their poetry in Tottenham.

A cow maybe.

Big bird

Innit
4.5 miles up to tottenham again. not much to see this run has become a bit boring already.It is quite suburban.
The big skate park has lots of bad graffiti and some ok stuff. All the artists live at the other end of the canal for now.


Bit like Robots



That lovely bridge on the way back
You can guess the day of the week by the fantastic lampshade hats.

A little shadowy person ,looks like he is levitating.
Three men , this reminds me of an album cover but I can't think which one?
Tiny person, they are everywhere when you look.
Not very good graffiti spelling out something rubbish but.. great colours and it looks like fireworks.
A little running person , I saw this a while ago but it has blurred it did say something like 'run for your life' or some sort of joke about mugging if I remember rightly.
Scarecrows are normally a bit scary but this one looks like he is wearing Nick's spare specs.
Springfield Park.
Lea Boat House.
And now forthe bad graffiti segment.I may give the kids some spray cans and see if they can do better.This person looks like a hairy gentleman's part.Not good.
I like the fact that they gave this one shoes.And the cutlery is nice.
Hmmm you may want to check your history book and amend where necessary, unless there is a new war I haven't heard about.
And it doesn't even scan.
Crap graffiti but they have a point.

More of that bridge, Is it just me or does it look different every day?
4.5 miles , north up the canal to the railway line and back again.
Sore leg.
