Last night, 8 Goodgymmers went out in Peckham to do some litter picking. We met as usual at Old Spike, but this time we welcomed Julien who had already done his first good deed that day - give him a cheer! 🙌

We started by litter picking the patch of grass where we usually warm up. It would have been easy to spend the whole session there but after tackling the big bits, we went ahead with our warm-up, and carried on to the canal path.

Once we reached the canal path, we did a quick ice breaker question - "what do you keep that others might consider trash?". Turns out we are sentimental or crafty, with answers including old trainers, ticket stubs and wine bottles. We split into small groups and spread out along the path. The path was very busy, with many cyclist shouting "thank you" at us! After many full black bags (I had to pop to the shop to get more!) we ran back to where we started for a quick stretch, and then on to the pub.

Anna found us at the pub! and took a photo of us since I'd forgotten to take any during the task, thanks Anna!

7 GGers ran to Cossall community centre on wednesday. Helping Jaki by giving some flood damaged chairs a bubble bath.

Followed by some essential post run hydration at Copeland Park

Yesterday, 10 Goodgymmers went to Nunhead Cemetery to help Andreas from Friends of Nunhead Cemetey move some bricks and repair a path.

We split into two groups: one for wheeling bricks and another group for repairing a path. It was a fun evening, and we enjoyed helping the volunteers at FONC.

Goodgym Southwark braved the heatwave to run to help clear weeds and tidy up at the Old Alleynian Rugby Club.

After finishing off some Moams, we jogged back and then headed to Franks for a rooftop drink!
