Please note that this group run has been cancelled.

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. πŸ’ͺ

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


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

πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ 7pm group jog to the task

βœ… 7:20 complete the task

πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ 8pm group jog back to the Bridge House

πŸ§ƒ 8:30 go home/stick around for a drink


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

⏰ Running late or don’t fancy the jog? Meet us at the task venue at 7:20pm

πŸ’‘πŸ§€ Dress for the task/weather - gardening gloves for outside tasks, head torch for dark tasks.

Hey folks, sorry for the late notice but as there are low signups we're going to cancel this week's session. A great new task is lined up for the week after though - hope you can make it: https://www.goodgym.org/v3/sessions/new-task-removing-vegetation-from-an-overgrown-bed-with-invisible-palace

See you soon,
