Parkrun - Thames Path

Here is my layout for Paige Evans' SKETCH OF THE WEEK - 15th April 2024 challenge. The sketch is given on the facebook group page, along with a youtube video. You share your layout on the page, to be put in a random draw to win the challenge.

Last weekend I was staying with my daughter, and we went along to her local Parkrun in Woolwich, called 'Thames Path'. Very interesting with the curly whirly up and down hill. Running along side the River Thames, very cold and windy, but bright and dry. Afterwards we were rewarded with a coffee in 'The Yoga Space'. I look forward to running here again.

I used:
7 photos
Doodlebug Designs Letter Stickers
Border punch
Simple Stories - The Little Things collection
