The Goodgym crew came down to Maida Vale underground station on Thursday evening to lend a hand with the Achilles International group run session. We host weekly workouts with the all abilities sports charity in a range of London locations, and this week we were running at Paddington Rec Track.

It was wonderful to run with our team of visually impaired runners (including some of who had also ran the Runthrough Chase the Moon 10km and 5km races just the other night!) alongside experienced and new running guides. Excellent performances from everyone, who took on recovery runs, tempo efforts, marathon training sessions and interval workouts on this public track.

Our next session will be at Stratford Olympic Park on Thursday 6th March:

The Achilles International crew met with our regular guide running volunteers and Goodgym runners at Paddington Rec Track on Thursday evening. Our hardy team did a smashing job of running through torrential rainfall around the 400m open access track, and put in some excellent performances. Top props to Camden Area Activator Alex running with Tom D for a full 10km. Also to new guide Tilly for assisting Andrew with his intervals while Kim looked after adorable guide dog Mario. And well done to Harvey for completing some mixed pace efforts with Mark N.

We will be back next week at Arsenal Emirates Stadium this Thursday!

The team from Achilles International UK had a smashing group run last night at Stratford Olympic Park. Thanks again to all of the guide running and supporting volunteers from the London running community and to our Goodgym crew! Well done to first timers Tilly, Grace and Richard for your help in guiding and dog watching!
