9 hardcore Hackney GoodGymers ran 5k to help St Luke’s clear Leaf’s in some very heavy rain!!

Big Kudos to you all for coming out last night! A strong effort put in by everyone in some less than glamorous conditions!!

After a full body mobilisation in the relative shelter at the Council offices to prime ourselves for our Total workout. We skipped over puddles and dodged rain drops on the short run to St Luke’s.

With Norman handing out tools we got stuck in!! Racking, strapping and forking millions of leafs into some epically big piles!

Will then filled all the bags we had to hand while Eva had her grabber and picked up a wide variety and large number of drinks cans.

Keeping the pace high mainly to keep warm we dominated 20 minutes of leafy full body conditioning work!

With the piles high and bags full we tidied up and zipped off on a 3.5k loop back to base to finish off a strong fitness Tuesday!

Wet and Worked Out we headed home with a hot drink and a warm shower the order of the evening.

Don’t forget our community mission on Saturday at St Joseph’s hospice clearing up the jumble sale!!

Next week Paul Bown will be leading the charge with Hackney Parks!!

See you all in a couple

Smooth Running
