I go to London occasionally for work.
Since I live in a high-altitude location, I really enjoy running when I travel, since I can go faster and farther and sight see at the same time.
The amount of diesel exhaust you breathe in running through London is pretty crazy compared to other cities I've been in. And I know that they have worked very hard to reduce this, so not trying to knock the UK or London itself. Just something I noticed and felt running along the Thames.
- parenthesis 6y agoWhat is the altitude of where you live?
- JPKab 6y agoI live northwest of Denver, higher up overlooking it. I'm at 1900 meters (6200 feet). Nothing too crazy, but makes a difference for sure.
- parenthesis 6y agoSomewhat higher than the very highest point in the UK (1345 meters at the top of Ben Nevis)! Living close to sea level, I've always been fascinated by the great height of places like Denver and Mexico City.
