My First Challenge Attempt

Post by mullardo »

A Few weeks ago saw my first full challenge attempt with me and a friend.

We started at epping, nice and early in the afternoon, and boarded a central line train for somewhere.
After changing at bank we took the northern up to Camden town, and doubled back down to Tottenham Court Road.
After a breif lunch on Oxford Street we took 2 trains to leicester square and the northern to Waterloo.
After a breif jog through waterloo underground we took the jubilee to stratford and gave up.

Time ~ 4 hours
Stations ~ 40

Overall we had a good day. We think we might do better next time. We hope. :|

Any tips to help us?

I assume you're taking the piss ...

If not, then you started on the wrong side of London and the wrong side of 6am. :)

That's brilliant! I bet that you had a nice lie in too. Starting/Ending at Epping isn't totally daft now that Woodford-Hainault is open earlier and later (isn't it?).
