On Tuesday evening, Area Activator Simon was joined by an awesome team of 13 Goodgym runners (including first timers Aimee, Julia and Joao) at the awesome ON Running Store, Spitalfields to continue our quest to visit all the Islington Parks in 2024!

Together, we ran 5.2 miles from the store, parallel to Old Street and Clerkenwell and onwards to Farringdon (amazingly all part of Islington, despite being in Central London), and visited the following parks:

Finsbury Square (Moorgate)

Bunhill Fields Burial Gardens

Quaker Gardens

St Luke's Churchyard

St Luke's Gardens

Radnor Gardens (by the old Ironmonger Row baths)

Lever Street Gardens

King's Square Gardens

Northampton Square Gardens

Spa Fields

St James Church Gardens

and

St John's Gardens in Farringdon

Well done everyone! Wonderful to be involved with the urban exploring challenge. More opportunities will be listed soon!
