About this session

Important Information

The plan is to meet up at the Arsenal Community Hub on Benwell Road, and after a short warm up, health and safety briefing and a warm welcome, we will run together to Timbuktu Adventure Playground.

Islington In Play and Timbuktu Adventure Playground have requested the help from Goodgym Islington to help with preparing this awesome play area.

Our task is to be confirmed, but we plan to continue our efforts after turning great loads of bark chip for local kids to play safely!

Task Location:

Timbuktu Adventure Playground, 31 Grenville Rd, Finsbury Park, London N19 4EJ

If you are not planning to run with us, our arrival time at Timbuktu Adventure Playground will be 7.15pm.

After our session, we will aim to arrive back at the Arsenal Community Hub for 8.30pm at the latest.


Things to Note

We are delighted to announce that we now have a bag drop and bathroom facilities for our group runs. Thank you to Arsenal Community Hub for accomodating us!

Please allow enough time to drop bags, as we will be running at 7pm sharp!

Turning Barking For Timbuktu Adventure Playground
Helping the turning of the barks which are created the whole playground. Basically the bark on the ground needs turning otherwise it gets too compacted and it's not great for the kids

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 Simon Fitzmaurice by email at simonfitzmaurice@goodgym.org.

Options are available to run between 3km and 6km in total.

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