About us
This is a group for people who love their music heavy (metal, rock, punk, alternative), who also want to climb, run, walk, hike, or anything else the group would be interested in. I created it because I wanted to find something like it in the area and couldn't, so why not start it?
There is no requirement to be into heavy music, everyone is welcome. You just might end up part of a discussion about what everyone's favourite concept album is!
Regular 5k runs around York, no pace goals (conversational pace, nobody left behind). If you've never run before, or it's been a while, we'll make sure you're part of it.
Bouldering sessions at Red Goat in York. First timers, or experienced climbers, everyone welcome.
The meetup doesn't end when the activity does. Runs start and end in York City Centre, and we go for food afterwards (unless someone fancies axe throwing or anything else!). For climbing, Red Goat's pizzas are a thing of beauty ๐, so feel free to stick around for them.
Some rules to follow, to ensure that nobody feels unsafe, and everyone has a good time: -
- No gatekeeping - Share what you are passionate about, don't make people feel bad for what they enjoy
- No pace goals, no grade targets, no attendance count
- If someone is making you feel uncomfortable, talk to me and I'll deal with it
- Take a no the first time, don't make other people feel unsafe or uncomfortable
- Racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, bigotry, any exclusionary behaviour is not tolerated. This also includes bands who lean heavily into any of this (no NSBM please)
- Get permission to take and post photos, don't assume consent
- If you are coming, let us know. If you can't, don't worry, no attendance scores kept, life happens!
