About this session
We'll be meeting at 6:30 at the Castle Centre Gym by Elephant & Castle tube. From there, we'll run a nice quiet 2km route to Nursery Row Park (all paces welcome!) where we'll be helping the Friends of Nursery Row with some gardening to help make the park an enticing local place for residents to enjoy.
We'll down tools at about 8pm and jog back to the Castle Centre.
For the run - we'll have a back marker, so all paces completely welcome. GoodGym welcomes runners of all abilities and we never leave anyone behind.
If you prefer to meet us at the task you're very welcome to do so. We'd expect to arrive at approximately 7pm.
If you happen to have gardening gloves, do bring them! And no worries if not.
The Friends of Nursery Row Park are local residents and workers who initially came together in 2007 to defend the park from the threat of development. The park is approximately 1.76 hectares of public green space near the historic East Street and includes 2 playground areas, a wildlife meadow and a community orchard.
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 your area activator Charlotte Martin (She/her) by email at charlotte@goodgym.org.
The total distance of this group run is 4km.
Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
