9 very soggy Goodgymmers were hung out to dry, right after they helped the wonderful folk at Traid get the floor ready after their latest sale.

Everything Must Go

Nurjehan and Kapil put my recovering lungs through their paces as not even the torrential rain stopped them from running a very cool 4.5k before tonight's mission.

Then, upon arrival at Traid, we were welcomed by Veronica and her team who were buried under mountains of clothes and were very pleased to see us.

One by one the rest of our Goodgymmers arrived and we got on with our job for the eve: helping Veronica store all the clothes from the shop floor into gigantic boxes, sorting out different hangers, and generally clearing out the floor.

We crushed it. Our face-masked heroes conquered hill after hill of old clothes at such speed that the Traid team couldn't believe their eyes. It'd take them longer to put together the big cardboard boxes than it'd take our Goodgymmers to fill them up.

After around 45 minutes, Veronica gave us an incredulous smile and thanked us as we had finished.

Quick fashion photoshoot followed and we all then went our merry ways.

Happy days!

Love the photos, love the title of the run report, loved the task, loved the dolls and the good folk of Good Gym; who as you rightly point out are " Not for Sale".
