Hello everyone,
Camden's back! Not like normal just yet, but this will be our seventh group run-style Community Mission since we've entered the next stage of lockdown.
We're going to be going down to Age UK's Great Croft Community Garden to lend a hand clearing and weeding this week! We'll meet outside the Living Centre from 6.45pm, and after a short intro, we'll get going just after 7pm. We'll run to and from the task, as if it was a normal group run.
Trainer Ben won't be leading this session - but will be back in October. The Trainer taking the session is TBC, but s/he will be brilliant as we all are, so don't worry about that!
In line with UPDATED UK Athletics and GoodGym guidelines, there will be a sign up limit of 12 runners each week on our runs. Tasks will be run at the same place for 2 weeks in a row, so I ask that if you've signed up to last week's run you don't sign up this week. This will allow more Camdeners to enjoy the tasks, so please think before you double sign up.
As social distancing measures are still in place, please remember the following:
- Bring your own pair of gloves for the task, that you don't share with others.
- Any task you'll be asked to complete will be socially-distanced. You're responsible for making sure you keep the 2m distance between you and other GoodGymers while you're working.
- Tools that you use at the task location will be yours for the time we're there, so please don't share them with anyone else (even with your gloves on).
We meet outside The St Pancras & Somers Town Living Centre, on the other side of the building from the main entrance to the Crick Institute. Look out for the red t-shirts!
There will not be a place to leave your bags and toilets aren't available, so please remember that you need to be able to run in what you bring. This is due to the Living Centre not being open to us just yet, but I'm working on it for future runs.
We welcome all abilities but ask that you are able to run for at least 15 minutes, don't worry though we keep together as a group and no-one is ever left behind! Come along and join us.
After the run we'll run back to Camden and go to somewhere outdoors - probably Granary Square - that sells alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks for a socially distanced drink and catch up outside.
Gonna be a good one - I'm looking forward to it!
Ben - Camden Trainer

Walkable
As you will make your own way to the task, feel free to walk or run as you wish.
Ideal for beginners
The St Pancras and Somers Town Living Centre

There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at The St Pancras and Somers Town Living Centre, and The St Pancras and Somers Town Living Centre and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
Led by Ben
Previous Trainer for GoodGym Camden. Love a squidgy, slightly underbaked triple chocolate brownie. Running is a jam.
Unfortunately this run has been cancelled due to task owner illness. We'll make a trip to Great Croft as soon as we can - I'll let you know when!
