I'll be doing Euston to Finsbury on the Vic. Probably could get away with the 0810 arrival but will probably be on the 0753 arrival into Euston.

There's a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USO4nnStxxg

There's a lot of tarmac and gravel paths, but it also looks like there's places where it could definitely get muddy.

Unfortunately, I'm not now going to be there. (See R15 thread).

I was taking a change of t-shirt (in case got mud splashed) and then just run around the tube with muddy trainers/shorts with jogging bottoms to change into for the darts...
