Here's what Miss A of CR0 had to say about the mission:

Mrs A was very happy with the work that the runners did in her garden and said that her nurses have been admiring her garden ever since. Thank you so much to the runners!

Miss A of CR0, mission beneficiary

Two local GoodGym runners, Stanka and Amatare turned up to help Mrs A keep her garden in check from mixture of weeds, binding grass and stinging nettle.

We got down to business after she had briefed us and completed the task within an hour and 20 minutes.

We had time to perform additional tasks like trimming the overgrown plants on the left boundary wall and dismantling a large derelict bird feeder.

Our host was satisfied and we took our leave after securing the garden waste and leaving it where it can be collected by the council.
