Walkable

You will be able to join a group walking to the task if you'd prefer not to run.

Options are available to run between 3km and 5km in total

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
