This evening’s task will be a bit different and rather festive.

We will be writing Christmas Cards for care homes, on behalf of the MHA, more details here.

Guidance on what to write will be provided along with some Christmas cards, but if you have some lurking at the back of a drawer please do bring them along!

Unlike last year, this year we have been assigned a care home in Carterton and will be writing a card for each resident.

This week we will run first.

Runners meet at the Up In Arms for a 30 minute trot. Those just wanting to write cards, and maybe have a drink, come to the pub at 6:30.

Options are available to run between 3km and 5km in total

Remember that we run to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.

Ideal for beginners
