Keep Calm and Kori On
1 GoodGymer made their way to help their local community in Haringey.
- Saturday, 15th of October 2016
On a mid-October Saturday morning, lone ranger Patrick ran to the Kori community centre playground and continued to chip away at the painted railings to push towards the end of the Kori story
I turned up to the playground expecting a small party and had brought my usual tunes to motivate the troops but, alas, was flying solo this morning.
Nonetheless, with steely determination, I continued to chip away at the layers of old paint, using different tools for the vertical rods and the curvy bits and wearing protective goggles (after the quick photo was taken!).
After a solid hour of power, it was already time to pack up, sweep up then head off for a 5-mile run across a few boroughs to greener pastures for a gardening mission in Tower Hamlets.
The story of the Kori painted railings has become an ongoing saga but is finally approaching its conclusion and will soon be history!
Sign up here for the next weekend visit; it will be amazing when the railings are stripped back and ready for a GG paint job.

Such a shame you were on your own! Sorry, I had to run 21 miles...
