Four GoodGymers joined together this Saturday morning for a group run to help out Homerton Adventure Playground.

We did a quick warm up and then set off from outside Brunswick Bakehouse for a social 2k run to Homerton Adventure Playground.

Two tasks were set before us and we split up into two small teams to divide and conquer. Jack and Suze tackled a heavily weeded area along the edge of the playground (which was so overgrown it was covering some artwork).

Marek and myself got rid of weeds and turned over a vegetable patch, unearthing some potatoes along the way which we collected.

We all joined at the end to help clear some final weeds before our potato-holding group photo and run back to Hackney Downs.

Well done all! The Adventure Playground contact was impressed with what a difference we made, and we shall be back for future tasks.
