Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Steve Lee (he/him)
Remember Group runs? From the Before Times? Well, this trip through Camden brought back some familiar landmarks, memories and new discoveries en route to help Ms C with a double-header task of a pharmacy run and weekly Big Shop. But wait, more than a double-header, the journey also featured not one, but two shops bearing my name (shout out to local passer-by Angie who tipped me off about the second one while I was on a video call to my mum outside the first). So that’s a double-header x3 Steve Lee’s and x4 if you count the photo I took in the shiny elevator doors. I mean, at that point numbers don’t go up that high, and my ego can’t expand that far. Also, shout out to a pub I spotted next to Speedy Place - you’re on a post-run to-do list as soon as pubs re-open.
But back to the task - Ms G, like many people GoodGym has been visiting during the pandemic had been instructed to remain indoors. “Yes it is boring, but I have just been told that I can go outside so I’m looking forward to having a walk around again,” she smiled. Ms G was lovely and had a super-thorough list, filled out with prices, in the order I would encounter them in the shop AND in duplicate so she could talk me through the items from a safe distance before I set off - does that double our running Steveception total? We’ll never know.

Well done on a great double mission Steve. Lovely that you got to visit an area you knew - and spot a few new things!
