    Anyone know if there are any interesting running routes around Gatwick? Staying in Holiday Inn. Expect to be somewhat bored

    If you can find the old railway lines that have been converted to green roads / bridle paths they are a lovely run.

    I've sent you a link of a route I made up as I went along. I asked in the gym for recommendations and the guy there gave me a few pointers.

    Think you're in the same place I stayed last year, maybe not.

    If you have the time it's a short taxi ride to Mickleham just outside Dorking - endless running on Box Hill and the downs over there. Box Hill is also where the Olympic Road Race climbs took place. You can start / finish at the Burford Bridge hotel.
