OTLEY RUN RESEARCH

Before we took the girls on the Otley Run we did some research on google of what the route actually was and what pubs were included. 







The Otley Run is named this because it runs down all the pubs along the Otley Road into Leeds City Centre.

We started at Drydock, The last pub on the route, as it was closest to us. We were then going to walk the route from town up to Headingley. Unfortunately by the time we got to the Fenton, it had started raining so decided instead to miss out most of the pubs and get off in Headingley. We documented what we saw along the route with photos in order to take inspiration from later.

By the time we got to the last pub, about 5 drinks later, I think we were scaring the poor American girls who have not before been exposed to British drinking culture. it was interesting seeing how much drinking is a part of our student culture compared to the Americans, who have only just turned 21, therefore only just able to drink. 

We did the route on a Monday afternoon so we diddnt get to show the American girls the wild costumes that you see along the route. We did some research on the internet of some of the costumes that you see on a typical Friday and Saturday night.
