Haringey
It'll be all o-K on the night
On a night of high emotion, 11 Goodgymmers got together for a last minute, choose-your-own-adventure type of evening around Haringey.
Ping ponging all over the shop
Our task at the Haringey Learning Partnership had to be cancelled at the last minute so Gramps wasted no time in acquiring some litter pickers and coming up with a new plan. After all, tonight was a special night as we were bidding a fond 'see you soon' to our very own Special K, who's moving on to warmer pastures. Nothing was going to ruin our K's last run with us for the foreseeable!
Armed with our litter pickers, we ran towards the Westbury Banks Nature Reserve where we took care of the Westbury Avenue side of the Reserve. We then ran towards the Library Gardens in Wood Green, where we also managed to collect quite a lot of litter and a few burpees along the way.
Afterwards, we retired for an evening of table tennis, pizzas, tears, and much love.
We'll miss you, Kapil - and we can't wait to see you again.
Join us next week for more fun.

Finsbury parkrun Goodgym Takeover
The Goodgym crew have been invited to take over the volunteering and pacing duties at Finsbury parkrun!
For those who are new to parkrun, this is a nationwide (and now worldwide!) free weekly 5km time trial, hosted in your local park. The event is super accessible, and the joy of parkrun is that your 15 min runner and your 60 min finisher are just as valued and appreciated!
To allow parkrun to happen every week, volunteers are required to help with key roles such as:
Marshalling
Timekeeping
Funnel Management
Barcode Scanning
Collecting Finishing Tokens
and as a great secondary opportunity:
- Pacing for certain popular 5km times
Here is a link for more information about parkrun. No experience is required for these roles, you will be directed by the event director and other volunteers on the day:

To sign up for a certain role, or to announce your plan to run with us, please add your name and parkrun number on the following spreadsheet.
In regards to pacing- we have listed some key pacing times on the spreadsheet. However, you are welcome to add other pacing times too.
