Yes 100% you can leave Zone 1 & 2, if you think it would help you could even venturne into Zone 4.

I am somewhat tempted if someone will let me join their team for this and can arrange to stay down in central London the night before and evening after.
(Please note: I don't run fast/much at all)

I've had a look at my finances and going to have to do this as an out-and-back from Brum in a day
Earliest I can get to Marylebone is 09:33 and Journey Planner estimates 30 mins to East Putney (if thats still the starting station)

Is the starting time still scheduled for 10:00?

Are you going by train? Try National Express or Megabus. NE gets me to victoria an hour before the first train does from Cardiff.

I would prefer a slightly later start than 1000 as well. Maybe 1030 or 1100?

Back on correct topic does anyone have a semblance of a route yet :?:

I have looked at this a couple of times and just gave up after 10 mins..... :? I will need to sit down next week when I have some spare time and come up with something.... This is more difficult that planning a full network...... :roll:

Oh and time wise I am fine with a later start, whatever suits the majority....... :)

I have a couple of routes both starting at East Putney and finishing at the same place as each other, which both seem to take the same amount of time :?

A later start time might suit me as well - the girlfriend has planned a very late Halloween party for the night before.

Finally, I would suggest Megabus as being superior to National Express (The departure point in Birmingham for Megabus is Snow Hill Queensway), but then I'm biased :wink: Tickets available at time of writing for £9.50 return

I've pretty much decided to head north from East Putney :P

I think there will be a wide variety of routes for this one - there are several plausible finishing stations.

I am very happy to consider a later starting time for this challenge, is everyone happy if we shift to 11:00 am?
