Well, after an hour sat here with a tube map and Windows Paint, here's what I've come up with. By no means will this work, but I'm hopeful.

You do a lot of long stretches of double backs, these'd add considerable amounts of time to your journey (you can cut many of them with very useful bus links).
I also think your finish would be at Regent's Park, since you've already done the section of the central line between Oxford Circus and White City earlier in the route? (between West Ruislip and Holborn?)
If ever an award for the least amount of walking ever to do on a challenge u have to win i can only see corridor walking and wood lane to white city walk allthough i think u missed out aldgate i believe.?
My first thought, before looking any further than the second line, was "Why start at Tottenham Hale if you're going to double back from Walthamstow - why not start at Walthamstow?"
But you'll be going to Walthamstow Central first anyway - why not just start your route from there? You do know that you don't have to start on the first train of the day?
Yes it was confusing that u put tower hill not aldgate instead as Steve says u might as well start the watch at Walthamstow u save 15 mins off ur final time.I can honestly say u be the 1st to start at Tottenham Hale the only other challenger this would benefit is probably Tangy

Sorry, I'm just putting up interchanges and station where I turn around and head back. Also apon the advice of the pros. (yourselfs) I'll still be on the first train out of Tottenham Hale, but will start the attempt at W Central.
At the risk of being patronising, get a list of all 270 stations in alphabetical order. When you have got your finalised route, trace it through on the map and tick off each station as you pass through it. If and only if all stations are ticked off would it be a suitable route. The reason for the list being alphabetical is that it effectively shuffles all the stations, forcing you to check every one off manually as I've described. You can easily spot if any have been missed, and if any have been, it's not a GWR route.
