Who this task will support
SUSTRANS
Sustrans are engineers and educators, experts and advocates. They connect people and places, create liveable neighbourhoods, transform the school run and deliver a happier, healthier commute. Sustrans works in partnership, bringing people together to find the right solutions. They make the case for walking and cycling by using robust evidence and showing what can be done. Sustrans are grounded in communities and believe that grassroots support combined with political leadership drives real change, fast.


We'll be meeting with SUSTRANS Volunteer Co-Ordinator Simon Geller to help keep Sheffield's walking, running and cycling routes spic and span and improve Active Travel routes for all.

We'll be meeting Simon at his favorite place The Durham Ox for one final Sustrans task for the year and Simon's last one as our main Sustrans contact. Simon has kindly offered to buy us a drink at The Showroom after to thank us for all of our tasks helping him with the upkeep of the National Cycle Network in the area. It would be great to get as many people out as possible for this one to enjoy a drink with Simon and thank him for all his time and dedication as well!

Options are available to run between 3km and 4km 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.

There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Showroom Cinema, and Showroom Cinema and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
