A walk around the London Olympic Park (Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park) during lockdown on Friday 8th May 2020. Starting from Leyton High Road we enter the park from the junction of Ruckholt Road and Temple Mills Lane passing the Lea Valley Tennis and Hockey Centre and the Velodrome. Formerly the Eton Manor Sports Club and Eastway Cycle Track. We walk beside the River Lea and pass back towards Hackney Marsh via East Wick and Here East.
