Stratton St Margaret Parish CouncilWe have been invited to clear out the tree guards at Merton Fields for Stratton St Margaret Parish Council The tree guards help young trees to stay upright in the wind when they are establishing; they also make them more visible to the public and to prevent rabbits from eating the trees! This task will ensure that the trees grow stronger so why not pop on a head torch, bring some gloves and join us this evening?
We will be meeting at 6pm just outside the Moonrakers*; just look out for us in the red and black GoodGym tops! After the task, we may be able to fit in a short exercise session before heading back to the Moonrakers.
Please note: This Group Run is Walkable, meaning that there will be one group of Walkers leaving the Moonrakers just after 6pm (led by a Task Force Member) and a second group of Runners leaving the Moonrakers at around 6:10pm (led by a Run Leader). Please also be aware that GoodGym runs are suitable for runners of all abilities. All our runs are backmarked and we never leave anyone behind.
*Please look out for our Run Leader, Simon who will meet you all just outside the Moonrakers.
Please note that for the time being, our Group Runs will start in various outdoor locations meaning that lockers, toilets and refreshment facilities may not be available before and after the Group Run. We hope that this will change in the future and that at some point soon we can return to a regular meeting point with facilities. For the meantime let's just enjoy meeting up again - we have a lot to catch up on 😊

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.
