Power Of Sport Podcast: Ivo Gormley On Building GoodGym From A Single Run

The latest episode of the Power of Sport Podcast features Ivo Gormley OBE, founder of GoodGym, the charity that combines exercise with volunteering. The idea began in 2007, when Gormley started running to deliver a newspaper to Terry, a housebound neighbour in Hackney. He needed a reason to run. Terry needed the company. That routine turned into a friendship, and the friendship turned into GoodGym. Eighteen years on, GoodGym has grown to 26,000 members across the UK, with runners, walkers and cyclists completing 400,000 good deeds by helping older people and community projects along the way. The episode covers Gormley's decision to step back from the charity he built, and what he's learned along the way.
