About this session

Welcome to GoodGym York 🙌

🏃‍♀️🏃We're a friendly and social group who combine exercise with helping out in the local community. Every Monday evening we meet to get active and do a physical task to help the charities or community organisations in our city. You can see what else we've got on during the rest of the week here.

TONIGHT 🌱 We'll be heading to the a Grove for two tasks. One group with deliver leaflets and the other will help with Park Grove forest school. We’ll then meet for fitness before heading back together

THE TASK ⚠️ Don’t forget your gardening gloves and headtorch

WHERE WE MEET 🎒 We meet at the Priory Street Centre and our usual room is the Foxwood Room. As you approach the front of the Centre, turn right and go to the car park area. The room we use is locked whilst we're out so you can leave your bits and bobs in there.

🚲There is cycle parking as you approach the Centre and a 10 bay pay and display car park and covered cycle parking to the left. In addition, on street parking is available on Priory Street.

RUNNING AND WALKING WITH US 👏GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities.

👍We always have a back-marker too so nobody will get left behind - no matter what your pace is.

🔦 We'll be running and working in the dark, so bring a head torch if you have one. We do carry a couple of spares so don't worry if you forget.

POST-RUN SOCIAL 🍻We normally head to The Ackhorne Pub on St Martin's Lane after our run for a spot of liquid refreshment and a good chat.
