GoodGym - Expert Impact

Ivo Gormley,

GoodGym

Met with David Giampaolo

GoodGym is a movement of runners that get fit by helping their communities.

We combat isolation and loneliness amongst older people and do manual work for community organisations. We’ll connect you with physical tasks that beneﬁt your community and keep you fit. Run in a pack to work on a community project, do one off missions to help vulnerable people or commit to visiting an isolated older person. You’ll get the help of a qualiﬁed trainer and support to achieve your goals.

On point. An invigorating and exciting meeting where you don’t quite know what’s going to happen.”

Ivo Gormley, Founder of Good Gym
