GoodGym is an award winning community of runners that get fit by doing good. They combine physical tasks for community organisations and helping the most isolated and lonely with workouts.
The concept
If you become a member we’ll help you get fit by doing good. You get the support of your local trainer and help to set and achieve fitness goals and a new GoodGym New Balance technical running top. You also get 20% off at NewBalance.com.
In addition, all aspects of GoodGym are free to participate in. Most Goodgym members donate an optional £9.95 a month which go to the GoodGym Charity to help us reach more older people. We’ll ask you if you’d like to donate when you join.
