Caught the GoodGym bug!

Last night was all about celebrating the monumental GoodGym achievements of Lucy who hit her 500th GoodGym task. Lucy joined in 2019 and gives so much of her time to GoodGym, very much part of the team in Richmond, Hounslow, Hammersmith & Fulham and the many other areas she frequently visits on her GoodGym missions. That called for a mega card to celebrate and messages from people in other areas too, plus further celebrations to come as she heads to Hounslow on Wednesday for her weekly group run there too. What a winner!

Starting at Tap Tavern, the group welcomed James for his first GoodGym session. The night may have been warm, but it's never an excuse not to warm up before running! Sam led the exercises before we all set off across Richmond Green and over the bridge towards Twickenham. A scenic route through the park gave Lucy the chance to celebrate with some dogs too, which anyone who has spent time with her will know are her favourite kind of company!

On arrival at AFC Heatham House, those who were meeting at the task were already tooled up and in action. Jobs included cutting back the bushes from the front, litter-picking, weeding and sweeping up the large drive area. There was a lot to do, it's an amazing facility. We are back on 3rd July if you would like to come and help us to continue the good work.

A final run back to Richmond finished not at the Tap this time, but at the Green where some of the group relaxed with a drink and some late snacks to finish off the evening with a toast to Lucy. Even the June Bugs came to join the party, dive-bombing JP, perhaps as a demonstration of his constant banter with Lucy that we all get to enjoy!

Congratulations Lucy, and thank you for making us part of the huge impact you have at GoodGym.
