Important Information

The plan is to meet up at the Arsenal Community Hub on Benwell Road, and after a short warm up, health and safety briefing and a warm welcome, we will run together to The Lighthouse Community Centre.


The Lighthouse Community, Evershot Street

"A Food Growing Space designed to promote local food and plants knowledge and tools to become more resilient."

"We involve people into the process of growing food from scratch, explaining the benefits of specific plants and teaching about a number of gardening techniques and approaches."

This location is in need of some attention, ready for new residents to move in.

Expected tasks would include:

  • Clearing the space as best we can

  • Moving few heavy things around to new locations

  • Tending to the garden space at the back

So bringing gardening gloves would be a good idea, if possible!


Task Location

The Lighthouse Community Centre 77a Evershot Road London N4 3DF

If you are not planning to run with us, our arrival time at Lighthouse Community Centre will be 7.15 - 7.20pm.

After our session, we will aim to arrive back at the Arsenal Community Hub for 8.30pm at the latest.


Things to Note

We are delighted to announce that we now have a bag drop and bathroom facilities for our group runs. Thank you to Arsenal Community Hub for accomodating us!

Please allow enough time to drop bags, as we will be running at 7pm sharp!

Options are available to run between 3km and 6km in total

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

This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us.
