June is Pride Month and GoodGym are proud to be inclusive of our LGBTQ+ members and allies. 🌈🏳️‍⚧️

In the second of our new series with Frontrunners, five GoodGymmers joined London's largest LGBT+ sports club for their weekly Saturday morning run in Victoria Park, before heading to the Pavilion Cafe for a post-run coffee and chat while sitting in the sunshine.

We were glad to welcome Christopher to his first Tower Hamlets session, and have Ed back after a hiatus - along with Simon, they took the moderate 5k pace around Victoria Park. Regular runners Aine and Ivo brought up the rear in this mixed ability run.

Locals Laura and Fiona rocked up in time for the coffee and chat part of this social event as we sat with our delicious brunch on the sunny lawn outside Pavilion Cafe.

Conversation turned to the Pride Run 10k on 17 September in Victoria Park, which GoodGym and Frontrunners are invited to save the date for! We hope to arrange some places and volunteering roles, so watch this space...

Also save the date for our next joint run: Saturday 30 July. Sign up now
