Hands up ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ who is dreaming of travelling again?! ๐ŸŒโœˆ๏ธUs too! The current situation has brought the global tourism industry to an abrupt halt, and the next few months will be a very difficult time for many tour operators. The COVID-19 pandemic means that Love London Running Tours cannot offer any tour dates for the time being, but it doesnโ€™t mean that we have stopped planning new and exciting routes ready for when we can tour again!๐Ÿ˜
One fantastic way that you can help support small businesses like Love London Running Tours is to join the movement and buy a gift card for a future tour! ๐Ÿ™ŒThere is no expiry date and the money invested goes straight to the business. ๐Ÿ‘ This means not only are you helping support the companies you love during lock down, but also committing to exciting travel adventures in the future!๐Ÿ‘Œ
We all need something to get excited about and just because we donโ€™t yet know when our next travel adventure will be, we can be sure to live in hope that it wonโ€™t be too far away! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง
Go on, you know you want to come on a tour with us as soon as you can and thank you for your support for Love London Running Tours! ๐Ÿƒ https://iwilltravelagain.com/love-london-running-tours/

Along with 43,000 other people we should have been running the London Marathon๐Ÿ… today. This is not just an incredible race around our favorite city, but for 13 years has repeatedly set the world record for an annual single day charity fundraising event. Last year runners raised ยฃ66.4 million!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’ท
So whilst the race is postponed charities still need donations, and the race organisers have set a to fundraise whilst exercising safely during lock down.๐Ÿ‘
Therefore we present the Love London Running Tours 2.6 challenge: 2.6 mile run๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ followed by a garden circuit mixing up 26 reps and 2 minutes 6 seconds of different exercises. ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘ฏโ€โ™€๏ธ
We are fundraising for children's charity Heart Link, a cause very close to our heartsโค๏ธ (click on link for full story!) and topically very relevant to the fight against COVID-19 with the ECMO machines helping some of the poorliest people. Any donation is hugely appreciated and makes a massive difference, plus we'd love to see your 2.6 challenges too! ๐Ÿ˜

Letโ€™s talk stretching! With a background of teaching group fitness classes we know the importance of a good stretch after a workout, and so when Love London Running Tours launched we made sure every tour included time to stretch at the end. Unless our guests preferred to do their own we would then guide them through a series of the main stretches, making sure to include some for the upper body too as youโ€™d be surprised how hard your shoulders and arms are working when you run!
With everyone in lock down at the moment we know it is easy to skip the stretching part to spend an extra few minutes on a run, or to return to work or childcare responsibilities. However, if you can include even a few minutes of stretches your body will thank you for it! Elongating all the muscles that become tight and compressed through high impact exercise, and providing a moment of calm and reflection post-run.
The post-run endorphins have been a great mood lifter during lock down and we know the joy of stretching and post-run success will be even more sweet when we get to do this looking out at the iconic views of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament again! For now keep safely running or walking when you can, and we will see you soon we hope for a Love London Running Tour!

Introducing the Love London Singapore Run! ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐ŸฅณNo, it's not a real Love London Running Tour๐Ÿ˜‚ but we love that Jacqui from Singapore has been fashioning her running buff all around the familiar sounding streets!๐Ÿ™Œ Great to see that you've been staying active during lock down Jacqui ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธand thank you for sending the pics! ๐Ÿ˜Š
Big thank you also from Love London Running Tours to our lovely guests who have left comments on our social media posts and dropped us emails and DMs.๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ˜Š You're all the best and we are so looking forward to running with you again! ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ
We know this is a stressful and worrying time for many of you, for those who can exercise we highly recommend getting out even for a short run/walk as it always lifts our mood and like Jacqui found out you never know what you may discover in your local neighbourhood! ๐Ÿ‘Œ

How are you staying fit during lock down? ๐Ÿ’ช In the UK we have been told we can only exercise in public once per day (which we know is more than many of you have been allowed internationally, and believe me we are so grateful of this opportunity to get outside๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŒž). For me (Nikki) I have been doing solo runs๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ of 3-6 miles most days, with a few non-run days of simply being active by walking around the neighbourhood. Having been used to doing several running tours per week, on top of training for the 2020 London Marathon and teaching gym classes this is a real drop in activity. The training I am currently doing is for maintenance โ€“ to keep my fitness levels up, and to not worry about speed or distance. Just to be grateful that I am physically able to run, and to enjoy the exercise endorphins and mood elevation that these outings bring. ๐Ÿ˜
Iโ€™ve also been doing home workouts (hopefully ones that wonโ€™t annoy the neighbours so no jumping haha!). There are loads of great paid and free workouts online. ๐Ÿ’ปFor runners I really recommend exercises that strengthen the core, back and legs, and those which activate your glutes. Just a small amount of strengthening our bodies now will pay dividends when it comes to not getting injured later! ๐Ÿ‘ŒWhilst some workouts require weights not everyone has those at home, so it's possible to be creative and use household items to add resistance (examples such as cookbooks, ๐Ÿ“šplant pots,๐ŸŒฑcanned food, ๐Ÿฅซwater bottles๐Ÿฅค etc.), plus bodyweight ๐Ÿ’ชalone is still a fantastic way to do strength exercises.
Donโ€™t feel guilty that youโ€™re not in beast mode. Even if we put on a few pounds we will lose them again after this. Some of you might not even feel like working out at all and thatโ€™s fine too. ๐Ÿค— Noone should feel guilty that theyโ€™re not doing everything they normally would right now. For me exercise brings happiness in these surreal and uncertain days. Races,๐Ÿ… travel โœˆ๏ธand Love London Running Tours ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธwill all be there again in the future, and we will enjoy them all the more when that time comes! For now please stay safe, exercise sensibly and come join a Love London Running Tour soon! ๐Ÿ˜Š

"Wonderful walking tour with an expert and enthusiastic guide! This morning I did a wonderful Love London walking tour with Nikki. Itโ€™s been over a decade since I lived in London, so it was fabulous to walk through some old and new haunts. Nikki talked me through many interesting facts and anecdotes about the royal palaces area and beyond. I came away feeling energised and more confident walking around the city. On my next visit to London I would definitely book another tour, perhaps even a run! A great way to start the day and take in the city, would highly recommend to any visitors or Londoners."๐Ÿ˜
Obviously this TripAdvisor review is not from this morning but pre lock down! Thank you so much Jacqui for such a super review and your 5*โญโญโญโญโญ rating! ๐Ÿ˜ŠIt is always a pleasure planning a bespoke route and we love doing the walking๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ tours as we have more time between stops to tell you facts and stories! ๐Ÿ‘Œ
This is a trying time for small businesses, so no matter if your Love London Running Tour๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ was earlier this year or five years back, if you enjoyed it and haven't yet left a TripAdvisor review we would so appreciate the support of a recommendation! ๐Ÿ™Œ
Please stay safe, stay home and we look forward to welcoming you all back onto a Love London Running Tour soon! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Throwing it back today to one Sunday morning in February 2015 when we did the launch photo shoot ๐Ÿ“ธ for Love London Running Tours!๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ
The days around the shoot had seen glorious winter sunshine, โ˜€๏ธ so of course the day we picked had far more typical British weather!๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜‚ It was very chilly โ„๏ธand as the shoot progressed the wetter ๐ŸŒง๏ธand more overcast๐ŸŒซ๏ธ it got making the finished pics really atmospheric. Loved the images!โค๏ธ Thank you to our talented photographer !
Really looking forward to running through those areas again once this current situation passes. ๐Ÿ‘ Let's all help make that happen quicker: Please stay safe, stay home and we look forward to welcoming you all back onto a Love London Running Tour soon! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Whilst we stay temporarily closed due to the COVID-19 global situation, we thought it'd be nice to continue to post positive memories on the news feed, not least as this month marks FIVE years since our debut Love London Running Tour! Whoop! ๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽ‚
Fun trivia fact for you: our first running tour was actually a fitness walking tour! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธWe have great memories of that day (not to mention of tour guide nerves beforehand!) with Londoners Kim and Hannah.
Please stay safe, stay home and we look forward to welcoming you all back onto a Love London Running Tour soon! ๐Ÿ˜Š

We would love to be offering a full schedule of Love London Running Tours but due to the developing Coronavirus situation, both here in the UK and globally, we have decided not to โ€˜runโ€™ any tours for now.
We know this is disappointing for people excited to do a tour but we really feel that we need to act responsibly and not put either our guests or our guides health at risk. We have contacted anyone affected by this and thank you for your support and understanding (as well as your kind words about how this affects small businesses like ours).
For now our tours are still available to book from May onwards, but please note that these may need to be cancelled if the situation remains or worsens. If you have a booking due to take place from May and wish to cancel or postpone it due to travel restrictions or health concerns, we totally understand your reasons for this and will be happy to advise on your best options. For anyone with a Love London Running Tours gift voucher worried about it expiring, please do contact us and again we will be happy to extend the date.
Please stay safe and we look forward to welcoming you onto a Love London Running Tour soon!

"Amazing running tour! We have done six running tours in five cities (New York twice) and this was the best tour we have done! Nikki was fantastic, taking us to many iconic spots on both sides of the Thames. She has a wealth of knowledge about London and took many photos along the way. We were very impressed with her hospitality and how careful she was about getting around safely. We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed this tour and highly recommend for runners of all levels, as a way to see the city up close and personal and get a run in! Thank you Nikii! Christie and Ken" ๐Ÿ˜Š
Thank you ๐Ÿ™Œso much for this wonderful 5*โญโญโญโญโญ TripAdvisor review Ken and Christie! Truly humbled and chuffed to bits with your kind comments about Love London Running Tours! Thank you!! ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ
