For this week's Group Run in Richmond we will be meeting at Tap Tavern at 6:45pm for an intro and warm-up before running together to the Petersham area. Tap Tavern kindly let us leave bags there is you need a secure spot for your stuff.

All running paces are welcome, noone is left behind! Alternatively, you can choose to meet us at the start location, near the Arch Lodge at the top of the Sea Scouts path: https://what3words.com/notes.banks.faster

For the task, we will be helping to maintain the restored grade II* Ham Avenues, part of a bat superhighway and regarded as the greatest Carolinian landscape in the world. We will be working to help maintain Petersham Avenue between the German School and Russell Schools by removing suckers on the European lime trees.

After the task we will run together back to Tap Tavern. This tasks is very much for everyone, first timers always very welcome!

Options are available to run between 4km and 6km 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.
