Mission accepted by two GoodGym Newham runners.

Gemma after getting home from work at 2am had a short run from home with a nice lap round Victoria Park. Sharon had the joy of running through Olympic Park,along Hertford Canal and into Victoria Park. Ms C has not be able to get into her garden for a long time so wanted it cleared so she can enjoy this lovely weather. We set to work cleaning the leaves before we discovered a huge bramble bush...ouch. But we would not be defeated so managed to get it moved. Leaves and weeds cleared Ms C can not spend some time in her garden. Said our goodbyes to Ms C who was really pleased and grateful for the work we had done. We headed to Victoria Park to cheer on the ladies taking Park in Cancer Research race for life.
