On a bright and cold Saturday morning two GoodGym Redbridge runners headed to Wanstead Community Allotments to give it some TLC and ran 5km in the process.

This was the second of two Saturday Starter sessions in January and a return to trip to Wanstead Community Gardens to keep the winter weeds at bay.

Redbridge Community Allotments have been a regular summer project for GG Redbridge and we have made great inroads in clearing the site over the last six months. The allotment is used by adults with learning difficulties and children and has an important role to play in education and health in the area. With an important event being held in just a few days time, it was down to the team to weed some of the pathways, put down some matting and makes it was safe for the young people visiting.

After 45 minutes of hard effort the work was complete and it was time to head to the streets for our usual 5km loop.

Another great task complete. There is so much to do in the area and we always need more runners to get fit and do good. For details of Monday’s task click here.
