Mission

Mr. D's shop

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Croydon.

After working from home, I put on my trainers and ran from East Dulwich to Croydon in under an hour (8.5k) through Crystal Palace and Thornton Heath.

Mr. D was pleased to see me and gave me £30 (more than enough) and a shopping list - ham, cheese, chocolate digestive, UHT milk and Cornflakes. A quick visit to Tesco Express to get all of the items.
