//The January Challenge – Liverpool!
January is the month for new year’s resolutions, new starts and good intentions! So we’re hitting the ground running (or walking, or cycling) with a whole bunch of extra sessions aimed to satisfy the usual resolutions of being healthier, getting fitter, making new friends, doing something good in the world, and getting to know our communities better! You’ll find a whole variety of sessions this January, so if you’re a regular GoodGymer, someone who hasn’t been in a while, or a brand new member looking to try out what we do, there will be something to get you going for 2025. Have a look through all the listings, and if you are new to GoodGym, welcome, we look forward to meeting you!
5k Trail in North Wales - Vale of Clwyd
Fancy a short trail race to get out into north Wales, see information below of the route description:
This event is based at the Southern end of the beautiful Vale of Clwyd, from the popular and thriving Caravan Park & Café at Llanbenwch, near Ruthin. The route is exactly 5k, multi terrain in nature, with a nice mix of minor road and trail to make for an interesting run in lovely surroundings, with fantastic views. The loop starts and finishes at the Caravan Park, utilises minor roads and public footpaths, with the odd short (gentle) climb, though for the most part you can stretch your legs on a pretty flat route!
Lifts are available and leaving from Lark Lane end of Sefton park 8am: Leave Liverpool 9-9.45am: Registration 10am: Race start Race Entry is £15
This is a race that you will have to register for, please see link below for info on how to register: https://out-fit.co.uk/e/vale-of-clwyd-5k-12070

Important Updates
Vale of Clwyd 5k, Standard Entry
EVENT CANCELLATION
I've just been to the venue, and the access roads and parking area is still frozen. This wasn't a worry earlier, as the overnight forecast was 'warm(!)' enough for it to thaw by race time tomorrow.
This has now changed, freezing temperatures tonight and tomorrow morning making vehicular access hazardous, with the parking bays themselves and the sloped drive access to/from the main road, very likely frozen for the event.
I'm sorry to cancel, once again thwarted by the weather. In discussion with the owners of Llanbenwch, the event has been moved to the morning of Saturday 25th January.
Your entry is automatically transferred to this date. If you cannot make it, please get in touch.
Thank you for your understanding.
