No demon running here, just some older friends and some newer friends chatting on and having a smile! This was the second special collaboration social stations run for GoodGym Ealing and We Run Ealing. This time the aim was no more than run to every station with Ealing in the name!

The first one, Ealing Broadway, was easy - we all met there! And what a turn out! We more or less stuck together and completed a big loop. Even a last minute drizzle didn't dampen our spirits.

We will return, not with the the thin white duke (a link to the obscure title of this report), but with another round of Acton and Ealing station runs next year!

A warm day unfolded for this month's Ealing Mile organised by We Run Ealing. But that also made it a lovely day to help out! 27 runners ran the mile course round our regular park route.

The winter can be a tough time for families who need the help of their local foodbank. The amazing volunteers of Ealing Foodbank do an amazing job but they always need more food donations.

So we partnered with We Run Ealing to hold our own west London version of the national Foodbank Run. A bunch of GoodGym folk and Ealing runners packed our backpacks with items from Ealing Foodbank’s February's Foodbank list and headed off to Gunnersbury parkrun.

After running, walking and volunteering at parkrun, we set off for Ealing Foodbank, some running, some run-walking, some walking. We dropped off our food donations, smiled for a group photo and retired to Momentum Coffee up the road for fantastic coffee and scrumptious cake, a job well done!
