8 Islington and Camden Goodgym regulars logged in to our weekly post-parkrun style coffee catch up this week, on a gloriously sunny Saturday morning.

Patrick had already participated in the Global parkrun Quiz that morning (9am every Saturday on Youtube- here is the link to get involved!), while James, Graham and Trainer Simon all made it out for running activities before joining our Zoom session. Kike was getting ready for a cycling session later in the day.

We all chatted about upcoming missions, and watching the recent "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" documentary on ITV. This lead to us discussing whether a virtual version could be organised as a meet-up session, and how we could make it work!

Our count-off question this week was "What examples of nature have you come across this week?". Our answers included:

  • A murmuration of Red Admiral butterflies in Hornchurch Country Park
  • The fattest, healthiest, smuggest fox!
  • Bird song
  • Bluebells
  • Fearless prancing foxes
  • More wasps and bees
  • Confused seagulls away from water

It is always a pleasure to catch up with our Goodgym friends. If you would like to meet up next week- sign up here for more information.

Same time (Saturday 10am). Same place (your home). Stay safe!
