Whether it was the fact it was a bank holiday or the fact the weather had dropped to below freezing but only two runners came out to kick of 2017 at GoodGym Redbridge. But this didn’t stop them getting fighting fit sorting out the wintery garden at Wanstead House and running 5km in the process.

With a series of Saturday starter sessions on the horizon in January, this was the first opportunity to do good and get fit in the Wanstead area. In the coming weeks the group will be sorting food for Redbridge Foodbank, mixing paint with the Forest Recycling Project and returning to Wanstead Community Allotments to see what winter has done to the garden. There’s plenty to do and with Saturday morning runs on 7 and 21 January and Monday runs every week, there is no excuse not to kick start 2017 with some good deeds.

You can sign up for the events as follows:

Saturday 7 January

Monday 9 January

Monday 16 January

Saturday 21 January

Don’t procrastinate, sign up for a run now!
