This week we have separate tasks for walkers and runners.

Walkers will be heading to Stockingstone Meadow to tackle invasive plants species growing by the river. We've spent the last couple of years helping with this problem and we've made a huge impact. We will defeat the invaders and make space for the native wildflowers and orchids that support our ecosystem.

Runners will be heading out to the slopes of Dallow Downs on a litter picking mission. This hillside is the target for a lot of conservation work this year and lots of litter is being revealed in the process. We'll tidy it up and make it green and pleasant land again.

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 4km and 8km 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
