Last night GoodGym Lambeth braved the temperamental weather to tend to the plants at Loughborough Farm.

We set off with the summer sun beaming on our backs for the short run down to Loughborough Junction.

This was my first GoodGym run in months; it's almost like I've come out of hibernation! So it was great to see Loughborough Farm - our first destination for GoodGym Lambeth back in January - in full bloom.

We watered the plants. We learnt our potatoes from our tomatoes. We created a metre high pile of weeds. And we even discovered a secret tap hidden among the arches of Loughborough Junction.

As we set off for Brockwell park the blue sky turned stormy and a rainbow framed the South London sky. After an evening of watering plants the heavens opened while we raced round the park. Oh the irony!

But our spirits weren't dampened as we sped back to Brixton Village.
