There was a sense of trepidation and nervous anticipation amongst the Richmond Good Gymers ahead of tonight's task.

The challenges began by negotiating an energetic and highly coordinated warm-up routine, set by Mark that included everyone’s favourite exercise, burpees!

Thoroughly warmed up for the task ahead we set off for the destination of our task, everyone’s favourite, Nightingale Hill. The route included one or two hills along the way to “drive us all crazy.”

Upon our arrival the Richmond Council provided us with brand new shears, rakes and brooms and we subsequently proceeded to chop back the brambles and clear the pathway at the bottom of Nightingale Lane, improving its appearance for the Richmond Upon Thames locals as well as making it safer for those passing by.

Another successful task completed, “oops we did it again!”

Congratulations to Mike on completing his second Good Gym Richmond run.

Finally best of luck to Kate and Lenka, who are taking part in the Big Half Marathon in London this Sunday. (Anuyone else participating this Sunday then best of luck to you too!)

See you next week.
