Welcome to GoodGym York ๐Ÿ™Œ

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸƒWe'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 ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ

Weโ€™ll be heading to Ashton Park to help shift some bark chip and spread it around the play equipment

THE TASK โš ๏ธ We'll be using spades and rakes so don't forget gardening gloves and your head torches for the run.

WHERE WE MEET ๐ŸŽ’ We meet at the Priory Street Centre and our usual room is the Foxwood Room. As you approach the front of the Centre, turn right and go to the car park area. The room we use is locked whilst we're out so you can leave your bits and bobs in there.

๐ŸšฒThere is cycle parking as you approach the Centre and a 10 bay pay and display car park and covered cycle parking to the left. In addition, on street parking is available on Priory Street.

RUNNING AND WALKING WITH US ๐Ÿ‘GoodGym is for everyone. We welcome runners of all abilities.

๐Ÿ‘We always have a back-marker too so nobody will get left behind - no matter what your pace is.

๐Ÿ”ฆ We'll be running in the dark, so bring a head torch if you have one. We do carry a couple of spares so don't worry if you forget.

POST-RUN SOCIAL ๐ŸปWe normally head to The Ackhorne Pub on St Martin's Lane after our run for a spot of liquid refreshment and a good chat.

New to GoodGym?

This is a GoodGym group run, where we run to help a local community organisation and then run back.

New GoodGymers are welcome to GoodGym group runs - no one gets left behind. You're unlikely to be alone, hundreds of new people sign up every week.

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

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us or see if there's a starter session coming up in your area.
