About this session

Crystal Palace Museum is right next to an amazing Water Tower (only the base remains) which used to feed a fountain in a huge lake where the National Sports Centre now stands.

The museum team have plans to turn it into an exciting part of their site, but first it needs the vegetation, ivy and soil clearing out, which is where we come in.

Armed with shovels, trowels and some GoodGym muscle, we'll aim to get another section of the space cleared. There will be different jobs depending on how much of a workout you want. ๐Ÿ’ช

It's a short jog (1.5km) to get there.


๐Ÿ“ Meet at the Bridge House from 6:45pm. You can leave coats etc with the bar staff.

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ 7pm group jog to the task

โœ… 7:20 complete the task

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ 8pm go home


๐Ÿ‘Ÿ New to running? We jog at a relaxed pace and always have a backmarker so no-one gets left behind.

โฐ Running late or donโ€™t fancy the jog? Meet us at the task venue at 7:20pm

๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿงค Dress for the task/weather - gardening gloves for outside tasks, head torch for dark tasks.

What to look out for

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.

This is a GoodGym group run. You'll meet other GoodGymers at the start location and run to the task together. If you can't run for more than 15 minutes without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us by email at crystalpalace@goodgym.org.

The total distance of this group run is 3km.

Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
