The Stacey Centre

Tom at the Stacey Centre has asked if GoodGym can help out with some garden maintenance across the community orchard and pre-school garden area.

There is likely going to be a massive pile of soil to be relocated via wheelbarrow, plus a range of small tasks to be undertaken, such as weeding, pruning and mowing.

Hi Andy, I'm still quite new to this ... where do we start the walk/run from? And where is the task - the Stacey Centre or Fratton Community Centre? Thanks.

Hi Julie, no worries at all. We'll be starting at Fratton Community Centre and running or walking to the Stacey Centre for the task, followed by a run or walk back. The run/walk is entirely optional though, so you are welcome to meet us at the task if you wish. Just let me know what you decide. See you next week!

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 3km 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.

Ideal for beginners
