Fitness P/T: Dulwich or Peckham Rye Park: 6am to 3pm


Recommended Posts

Thread updated with new and different challenges - Always go to the last couple of threads ** March 2015 **.





This group will contain a combination of joggers, powerwalkers and those with challenging joints that need to cycle for each of the 300m sections - then stopping for toning.


While we meet in your local park, Dulwich, a large section will actually be on the perimeter trail and outside in low traffic areas.


I had a team of 17 ~ 20 last year, and the group is made up of AHM (Active-Healthy-Mind), Project London Health (the FREE fitness team on the Rye), and a bunch of others too!


If you are from East Dulwich, head to the Plough and then down to Court Lane entrance. Take a right-ish path in the park to the traffic barrier near the main car entrance opp the gallery.



If you are not registered, could you fill in a health form on www.AHM-Go.com and email back to [email protected]. Also, can you bring a 1Ltr bottle of water for arm, shoulder and back toning - and rehydration too!


Age & Ability:

16 to 60+, and if you are a parent that wants to bring a younger one as its in easy going chuncks, ?2 for the little one's...

We have a team for tomorrow evening and some others who can't make the first session, but good for next week!


See you for 7-30pm, about 200m from the main entrance (College Rd opp the picture gallery) by the barrier (a wee roundabout).



I'm 6'2", big former Auz rugby player, with a purple top, and..... I should have my cycle bike with me :-)

Hi Sam,


The Tuesday session will have a number of new people next week. It contains powerwalkers, joggers and faster ones - but just working in sections of 300m. Part of the session is taken by one of my daughters who works on core muscle sets.


The Sat 9-30am session hasn't the same momentum so will put myself back into my FREE fitness group on the Rye, meeting at 10am by the caf? on Saturday mornings.


Come along tomorrow morning, its FREE, FUN and full of differnt fitness levels..... and you get a 30-min lay-in.

Catch you all in the park this evening, usual place by the barrier.


Head up from the Plough and down to Court Lane entrance, then take a right-ish for c.300m to the barrier. Or, in from College Road and into the entrance opp the Gallery - again c.300m to the barrier.



Best!

Select the day that best suits you, and any time (1Hr or 1/2Hr slot) between 6am and 3pm (Sun 9am til Noon).


For the past 8-years, I have a FREE session on Saturday mornings at 10am, meeting at Peckham Rye Park Caf? - 20-ish people on ave.


The P/T is aimed at all ages, abilities and health challenges: SAS (pre & post), Doctors, Journalists..... a number of my clients are in remission or in rehab from injuries such as brain damage, Stroke survivors, Neuro co-ordination through to Fibromyalgia.


** Example **

One client who was hit by a bus required a number of years of NHS rehab to walk and talk again. She was referred to me and also joined the FREE Saturday session - within a year she was running 5Km, 10Km, Bath 1/2 marathons and in 2014 the London marathon in 5Hrs!


She has now moved to Bath and is a member of 3 running clubs - that is awesome!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
