"Hey, why are you guys jogging?" - small cycling boy in Hackney

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice

We were treated to a glorious evening of summer time sunshine tonight for our group run over to The Rose Bowl Youth Club in Canonbury. A top crew of 6 Goodgym runners and walkers on hand (including first time Islington runner Danya- welcome!) to help Dawn and the team at the community youth project.

Starting our run with some warm up drills up towards the Emirates Stadium, we crossed Highbury Fields via the Whistler Street slope, and down towards the Canonbury Overground Station, before arriving at our destination. The lovely folks at The Rose Bowl Youth Club had been rushed off their feet recently, after finishing excursion holidays with the local youth, photo shoots with the council and a cycling maintenance course for the young ones! So they were super thrilled to see us!

Our objective for this evening was to clear a large patch of weeds and vegetation away from a beautiful wild flower patch. Although we have had an explosion of growth from these beautiful plants, our concern is that the super-growers will choke out the newly planted cherry trees within the space, so some careful upkeep would be required. Charlotte and Benedict also assisted with a spree of litter picking around the play area and entrances to the Rose Bowl before the end of the evening.

All of us completed our evening of garden tasking and rubbish collecting with a collective push to break down a load of cardboard boxes for recycling tomorrow. A great way to complete a solid session of help, before running back to the Arsenal Community Hub.

Great job folks- see you for our group run to Thornhill Square Gardens next week!

Siri-ously Good Fun with Achilles International

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice

On Thursday evening, 18 Goodgym guides and VI runners met at Arsenal tube station for our weekly group run, before walking to the Emirates Stadium concourse as a team.

This was a particularly special run, as it was also the 11th birthday for Siri, the daughter of Achilles International London chapter founder, Chris. To celebrate, we concluded our runs with a trip to Fire Away Pizza on Holloway Road for delicious deep pans and wonderful Nutella delights.

A fantastic evening out- good times, great running.

See you at Paddington Rec Track next week, folks!
