7 GoodGymers ran to Springfield park to clear 2 tonnes of excess gravel from the pathways.

A very Chilly one in Hackney!! Negotiating the ice puddles on our run up from London Fields to Springfield Park.

Grabbing the wheelbarrows, shovels and brooms we made our way to the sloped crazily over graveled path leading to the far entrance to the building.

Getting to work via spot light we worked fast and amazingly thoroughly to take the path perfectly back to the bonding surface so it's safe and usable for all the park users especially those with physical disabilities as they enter or exit.

35 minutes and the job was done!

Heading off into the night to warm up after a impactfull and energetic GG evening!!

Look forward to seeing you again very soon!
