28 Hackney GoodGymers ran 6k to Hackney Wick Community Garden.

Amazing to be back with the squad this week and a huge thank you to Katie for blazing a trail of navigational glory to and back from the task!!

3k very warm kilometres of running had us warmed up for task action and with loads of jobs to do we got right down to business!!

A forest of wood to break down into twigs, big twigs big bagged up and transported in brown Bins across the estate, virtually draining the river of water will the amount of watering that was required for a very thirsty garden (all done by buckets), ingenious work creating not only a hose pipe mini irritation system but also a nailless wood store!

40 minutes of graft rewarded by an amazing fresh fruit spread and water to fuel us up for the strong run back to base!!

Than you all for coming and best of to Deb and Paul for their amazing GoodGym tour!!

See you next week for a Hackney Downes adventure!

Smooth Running

Joel
