Wasn't the GG Virtual Olympics wonderful?

You can now catch up on all the action on the recap section of the Goodgym Games website: https://gggames.netlify.app/2020-recap/?fbclid=IwAR26Bd6MjCVtR3IHX1Urw4YsgSh8WwJJ_eYPVNlzJTpJIni1cVgB1nIKtd4

Including the nerve-racking 5km Elimination Race unfolding before your very eyes!

5 Goodgymmers signed up to the #ggislingtonintervals challenge to submit their entries to the main event, sprinting their 1km repeats in all different locations across the UK!

Bristol legend Matt Garnett took on this already daunting challenge on what seems to be a hill near Eastville, and still counted in some impressive times! James and Claire ran their reps around Clissold Park, and successfully maintained a negative progression throughout their workouts. Graham ran around the perimeter of Lordship Recreation Ground (leaving some very satisfying Strava patterns behind), and Trainer Simon ran his laps at Victoria Dock, near the Excel Centre.

NEWS

From this Monday onwards, Goodgym Islington Intervals will continue with two ways to participate.

  1. Virtual Session. Same as this set-up, run your intervals in your own time and add them to Strava with the hashtag #ggislingtonintervals

  1. Group Session. Every Monday, a trainer led session will happen at the Emirates Stadium (our group run start location) at 7pm. Our numbers are limited by Government guidance, so sign up sooner rather than later!
