If you are a traveller and want to keep fit while exploring the British capital, you just got a new way of doing so. London Sightseeing Runs offer group and one-to-one running tours across London and past various sights with a qualified fitness trainer.

There are five different routes altogether. Riverview Run leads you from the Houses of Parliament to the Tower of London; Royal Parks takes in Kensington Palace, The Mall and parks in West London; Maritime Greenwich includes the Royal Observatory and the Millenium Dome; London Canals explores the canal ways in some of the most exclusive neighbourhoods and the Historic East End Run takes you around Jack the Ripper's hunting ground and to the alternative arts scene at Spitalfield's Market. Each run takes about an hour to complete and start at 7am, 10am, 3pm and 7pm every day. The guides are also able to provide interesting historical facts, along with fitness tips.
