The Osterley Winter 10k is a staple of our local running calender, organised by the wonderful people at Ealing Half Marathon. GoodGym provided the warm-up for their summer 10k and they asked us back for the winter version. And it definitely felt like winter, cold, nay, freezing! We had our work cut out to get these runners warmed up. But we're a fab team ready to shake their stuff in the name of running! The GoodGym folk are so fun, they're game and they're up for a challenge. And the runners didn't let us down, their enthusiasm to kick heels, pull high knees and reverse those lunges made it all worthwhile.
Oh, and the last song we played to warm up to was called Reward - a medal for every runner!

Delivering inclusive community-focused running activities and related volunteering for people of all ages and abilities in Ealing
WE RUN EALING is the charitable arm of the award-winning Ealing Half Marathon. We deliver community-focused running initiatives, many of which are free and open to people of all abilities. Previously known as EHM Legacy, thanks to Ealing Half Marathon, we have done heaps of stuff over the last ten years to help get people moving in Ealing. We have had installed a new drinking fountain installed Lammas Park – popular with humans and dogs! During lockdown we arranged events to encourage Ealing residents to run or walk to dozens of local parks. More recently we have brought the Blended Trails trail-running concept to Ealing and launched Ealing’s first ever Food Bank Run, in partnership with GoodGym and parkrun.
