We'll be litter picking around the Headington Hill/Cheney Lane/Warneford areas. Having run through that area recently I know it could definitely do with some attention.

Litter pickers and bags will be provided but please bring your own gloves. As the evenings are dark now I suggest hi-vis if you have them, and headtorches would be helpful for everyone as Cheney Lane area is poorly lit.

Meeting points:
Runners meet at 6pm outside Oxford Mutual Aid at The Richard Benson Hall on Cowley Road for a 1 mile jog (uphill -sorry!) to the litter pick location.
Non-runners meet at 6:15pm outside Oxford Brookes on Headington Rd. Location pin here.

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

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.
