- Pack a picnic lunch the day before. As it's a budget-friendly date, homemade sandwiches, wraps, or simple pasta salad are excellent options. Remember to pack some fruits for a fresh dessert. Also, bring along a soft blanket to sit on and ensure your picnic basket is easy to carry.
- Check the directions and start point of your run towards the London Zoo. Itโs important to know your route before the day, so you donโt lose your way during your jog. Also, familiarize yourself with the areas in the zoo from where you can see the animals without entering the premises.

Some tips:
- Warm-up before you start your run to prevent any injuries. Start your jog slow and then gradually increase your speed to ensure you don't tire too quickly.
- Choose a picnic spot that is not too secluded as it should be in sight of the zoo, allowing you to see the animals. Plan your picnic time around the animals' activities or feeding times for an added fun element.
- If your partner isn't too keen on the running part, consider walking or cycling the route. The main aim is to enjoy the scenery, spot wildlife, and spend quality time together. Adjust the physical activity to match both your fitness levels and preferences.
