It's Tuesday so it's a group run (and walk), meeting in (and returning to) Queen Square and leaving there at 6.30 - gloves are normally needed and it’s that time of year when *insect repellent** might be a good idea*

We’re back at the Scrapstore to process their scrap - one of our favourite ever tasks after running or walking (so long as a lovely TaskForce member volunteers!) to the task. Running is at a chatty, social pace with stops at traffic lights - there seem to be a lot no matter where we’re heading…

Changing facilities, lockers and loos are available at Workout Harbourside - bring your own padlock or inventive personal prized possession to swap for one of theirs if you want to lock your, er, locker. Otherwise it’s just an er. Make sure you’re back out in Queen Square for 6.20!

We’ll go for a drink afterwards, hopefully at Workout out on the waterfront as it should be almost summer… 😊

Walkable

You will be able to join a group walking to the task if you'd prefer not to run.

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

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
