Horsin’ around on Horsenden Hill: the February GoodGym London longrun
20 GoodGymers made their way 19.0km on a training session in Ealing.
- Sunday, 11th of February 2018

Right, no messin’ about. Sunday 11th February. Arriving promptly at Paddington or East Acton, 20 heroic GoodGym runners went on a west London longrun finishing in the delightful Ealing Broadway Franca Manco for pizza.
With a few longrunners nursing memories of maybe one too many drinks the night before (your author included), we set off at a steady pace. Km after km down, we saw the delightful sites of the Grand Union Canal, Horsenden Hill, Pitshanger park, and Cleveland Park, stopping to take the odd photo on the way including…a half-submerged canal boat. Yeah, we didn’t see that we coming either. Every day’s a learning day!
Arriving at Franca Manco on time(…ish), we settled in for a well-deserved meal. Running. Canals. Hills. Pizza. What else are Sundays be for?
See you for the next run on 17th March – full details coming on the training sessions page soon!
