Unfortunately this run has had to be cancelled due to the weather. Aside from possible challenges on the task itself, the possibility of snow and ice means that its not possible for us to guarantee that we'll be able to safely complete the long (and uphill) route to get there so we've taken the decision to cancel now rather than leave it until the last minute

The pond at Henleaze junior school has seen better days. It's a leaking and the surrounding area is a little overgrown. What's more, the area isn't safe for the children to use unsupervised at play time.

Help us drain out the last of the water and prepare the space so the pupils can all enjoy using it safely again.

Note that this is a fairly long run so do be sure you're ok with the distance (with a stop for the task halfway through though!)

We'll meet at the Mud Dock (upstairs in the cafe) and you can store bags in their lockers. We'll be back there by 1pm when a few of us usually hang around for some lunch!

9km total distance

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 or see if there's a starter session coming up in your area.
