Welcome to GoodGym
🏃♀️🏃We're a friendly and social group who combine exercise with helping out in the local community. Every Monday evening we meet to get active and do a physical task to help the charities or community organisations in our city.
TONIGHT
We are heading to Rowntree Park (Richardson Street entrance) to help clear some beds and shifting logs. Please bring gloves and wear a headtorch.
THE TASK ⚠️
we will be wrapping Christmas presents for the school fair and children’s presents
WHERE WE MEET 🎒
We will be meeting outside the Ackhorne Pub on St Martin’s Lane, YO1 6LR (just off Micklegate). We can leave our bags and valuables in their office, which is secure.
🚲There is cycle parking nearby on both Micklegate and at the Priory Street Centre (as you approach the centre a 10 bay covered cycle parking is to the left in the car park) On street parking is available on Priory Street. These are all only a couple of minutes walk to the new meeting point.
RUNNING AND WALKING WITH US 👏
GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities. If you prefer to walk let us know and we can arrange a walking group.
👍We always have a back-marker too so nobody will get left behind - no matter what your pace is. If running isn’t for you we can do x cycling group to this task. Please let us know if you’d like this option. Or you are always welcome to meet us there.
POST-RUN SOCIAL 🍻
We will finish the group session back at The Ackhorne Pub on St Martin's Lane so why not stay for some liquid refreshment and a good chat?

The area you are working in may be in darkness which could cause a risk of trips or concealed hazards.
For this GoodGym group session, with the option of walking too, you'll meet other GoodGymers at the start location and run or walk to the task together. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact your area activator Ed Woollard (He/Him) by email at edwoollard@goodgym.org.
The total distance of this group run is 3km.
Remember that we will be running or walking to and from the task, so you'll only be running or walking for half this distance in one go.
