Absolute awesome GoodGym last night. As usual we met up and chatted about our weekends till seven o'clock arrived and it was time to do the business. Tonight we were off out to help our friends at the 'Danson Youth Centre' with an ongoing clear and clean up. With headlamps lite up we headed off down Danson Road so to get a nice run in before getting stuck into our good deed for the evening. I love this part of the evening when everyone pairs up, or runs in small groups chatting about, well basically anything you want. It helps the kilometres pass by and it wasn't long till we were being greeted by Ben and Joy at the centre........

Tonight we had a couple of tasks to complete. One was to break down some wood to clear up another car parking space and clear up rubbish and leaves that had built up in that particular corner. Our second task was weeding and clearing out a long flower bed and general tidy and sweep up of that area.

Like an well oiled red machine we pushed through both task, had time for a group photo, got back to Crooklog, had a quick wall sit off to strengthen our legs, and all within in our alloted time. Boom!!!, get in.

This weeks shouts go out to Neil who attended the 13th year Bexley park run celebration run. It was great seeing you there. To Susan and Sarah for smashing the 'Shoreditch 10K on Sunday. Well done ladies, you rock! And last but definitely not least to all the Bexley Goodgym crew that turn out every week and make our Mondays just awesome. Thank you.......... See you all next week.
