Stage 4:Putney to Richmond
Date:03/11/2002
Distance:8.2 miles
Conditions:Blue sky with some cloud.

I started this stage a little earlier in the day than previous stages which meant I got to the destination before it began to get seriously dark. The photos don't seem to have come out so well - must be the lighting conditions. A good walk, but I was glad to get to Richmond as I had to battle with slight cramp in my right leg for much of it. There was a noticeable difference in the path on this section - much of it was towpath underneath a canopy of trees. Lots of joggers and dog walkers and a bit muddy underfoot but all in all another good day.
