A right pane in the glass!

It was so nice to have some shorts and tshirt weather - finally - for our task in Wandsworth last night!

There was lots to celebrate to kick off our evening. Great to have a lovely GG Wandsworth tourist (come again soon Louise!), we need to give Nicholas a big cheer for doing his first parkrun (in a blistering time no less!), well done to all that did Hackney Half on Sunday, and don't forget if you'd like a £10 community place for the Big Half in September then let me know by tomorrow! Phew. After all that good news we did a warm up ready for the run ahead, and also answered the question - which emoji do you use most? From the green heart, to heart hands, to the yum face and quizzical smile face the answers revealed lots of lovely things about us - and there wasn't a thumbs up or an aubergine in sight!

Our task for the evening was at Omnibus Theatre. The theatre was opened following a seven-year community-led campaign to save the old Clapham Library from developers and turned into an arts hub, maintaining the heritage of the library as a civic space for all. Today it operates as a charity, and receives absolutely no guaranteed funding or statutory support, so volunteers are really important in order to continue the mission of supporting emerging talent and provide education for young and disadvantaged people.

The job in hand last night was to wash the many, many outside windows and we wasted no time jumping into action. Filling buckets and grabbing sponges we divided up into teams, and using ladders, chairs, some impressive agility and no shortage of elbow grease we got going. Half an hour later and the windows were quite literally squeaky clean, so we packed our stuff away and headed into the garden to assess our newest project. Hopefully before long we will be taking over our very own GG space and creating something beautiful!

Next we hopped over to the common to knock out a plank based fitness session which really worked on our abs. We finished it off with two core triathlon reps. These sort of exercises are great for better form, more efficiency when running and preventing injuries. Well done everybody!

Next Monday it's bank holiday so we will be moving the group run to midday - hope you can join us for this fun task transporting donated plants to a community garden. Have a great week everybody - enjoy the sunshine!
