果冻影院

On 31^st聽May, 15聽果冻影院Geoggers聽(including Geogging alumni and friends of Geoggers) ran either half-marathons or 10kms around Richmond Park.

(In fact, the distances were rather longer at 24km and 12km respectively, making them the longest distances that most of the participants had ever run!)

The event was held to raise money for the charity聽Shelter, and the team exceeded their target of聽raising 拢1000.

The group had been training for 10 weeks before the event, especially through the weekly聽果冻影院Geoggers Monday evening run聽around Regent鈥檚 Park and Primrose Hill. On the day, the camaraderie was amazing, including a picnic afterwards with ice cream, strawberries and cold beer!

Panny Zaris聽(MSc Climate Change) who organised most of the event said

鈥�鈥湽�冻影院 Geoggers is the perfect group to be a part of if you want to keep fit in a fun way, meet some amazing people and explore the beautiful parks of central London. Before starting my Masters at 果冻影院, I never used to run more than 15 minutes on a gym treadmill. I was also very nervous about moving to a new city where I didn't know my way around or many people. 果冻影院 Geoggers is a welcoming聽family where everyone supports each other to achieve their own goals with no pressure - and with all their help, 8 months later I managed to complete a Half-Marathon! I have met some amazing people, explored some聽hidden gems of London聽and I will definitely keep in touch as an alumni Geogger in the future.鈥�
