Join the GoodGym Race Team
GoodGym gets serious(ish)
February 27, 2025
The GoodGym Race Team is GoodGym's England Athletics affiliated running club. Set up and managed by the GoodGym community, it is available for all members to join. The current committee are looking for people to help bring more adventures to GoodGymers over the next year. Read on to find out how you can involved.
The GoodGym Race Team was set up in 2015 by a bunch of GoodGymers who wanted an official way to organise GoodGymers around the country to come together and attend races. The Race Team may sound serious but the focus is firmly on fun. You don't need to be a speed demon to get involved - it's about coming together to run and party. The Race Team is a UK Athletics affiliated club meaning anyone who joins gets discounts in lots of races, and becomes an official registered athlete!
The Race Team have been responsible for some of the most memorable events in GoodGym's history - from racing steam trains and horses in Wales to PBs on fast and flat courses like the Bournemouth Marathon.
Some of the existing Race Team committee are stepping back and so want to recruit some more eager GoodGymers to get involved. Events are coming thick and fast as we approach Spring and with it, they are looking for people to help organise events across the year. There are various ways you can help out, from supporting the logistics of attending races to promotion and marketing.
No experience needed and there is a minimal time commitment. The more of us getting involved only reduces it further.
If you're eager to see the GoodGym Race Team continue, please fill in this form to register your interest and the current Race Team committee will be in touch.
