Tips from the Revival Team:

• Timing is everything: Hit the river paths early or around sunset to avoid crowds.

• Watch your footing: Some cobbled and trail sections along the Thames can be slippery after rain.

• Pair your run with recovery: Post-run, swing by Revival for mobility work, a sauna, or SGPT session to round out your training.
