Achilles International London, the capital's chapter of the visually impaired and all abilities athletics foundation, were thrilled to return to Green Park for the first time this year. Summer months bring more opportunities for evening running in beautiful Royal Parks, with Goodgym guiding and bag drop volunteers on hand!

This evening, Tom D was guided by Emre and first time guide Sander over 10km total distance between the two runners. Luc run a smashing series of laps with Brendan. Meanwhile Michelle, Charlie and Simon looked after Mario and Hugo, two lovely guide dogs, while their owners enjoyed their running sessions.

Thank you for a wonderful evening everyone!

Next week, we will be at Paddington Rec Track, meeting at Maida Vale Underground Station:
