GoodGym have been asked by Age UK Camden to help Ms M. She would like a hand with essential shopping. She would like the runner to go to Sainsbury's at the O2 centre on Finchley Road for the shopping. She is able to pay by cash and will have a list ready beforehand to collect. Ms M has had GoodGym's help before and is always very grateful for the help.

This week's fitness challenge in Wandsworth saw runners covering between 7-11km in an orienteering run around Battersea's many points of interest - well done to those of you who cracked the questions and ticked off all 6 sites!

Here are the clues with the answers:

Clue 1: At almost 130 years old, the former Battersea Town Hall is a listed building that survived a devastating fire - our former meeting point and culture hub - Battersea Arts Centre

Clue 2: Mary Tealby originally established this furry refuge in north London before moving down to Battersea. David Gandy, Paul O'Grady and Tom Hardy are all ambassadors at this safe place for (wo)man's best friend - it was of course the one and only Battersea Dog and Cat's Home

Clue 3: This beautiful Battersea structure was built by monks and nuns who believed 'Civilisation is not to kill human beings, not to destroy things, nor make war; civilisation is to hold mutual affection and to respect one another.' It represents the life of Buddha and is looked after by Reverend Gyoro Nagase - the beautiful Peace Pagoda in Battersea Park

Clue 4: The oldest church in Battersea, this was where William Blake got married and Turner painted his iconic views of the Thames from the vestry window - St Mary's Church sits in a prime spot right by the river (it also has a coffee van run by a social enterprise which is worth a visit!)

Clue 5: Battersea is famous for being the biggest producer of asparagus in the UK in the 1800s - they were known as Battersea Bundles. But can you find its namesake pub? It's a 'Spoons of course! The Asparagus pub on Falcon Rd

Clue 6: Built in 1900 and with acts ranging from Charlie Chaplin to Oasis, this old music hall has more recently hosted white collar fight nights, famous Queens from Ru Paul's Drag race as well as comedy and immersive theatre - From club nights to literary events, The Grand has something for everybody

Congratulations to everybody who took part - check out the brilliant photos from runners who nailed the clues. Look out for the next challenge coming very soon!

This week's fitness challenge was to solve all 8 clues which took Hounslow GGers to the sites of various previous tasks over the course of 7kms - a massive well done to all of you who cracked the questions! Look out for another fitness task to be completed over the coming week very soon.

In the meantime, here are the answers (apologies for the mistake in clue 8!) and some great pics from Andy...

Clue 1:

Direct those speedy feet

To this place we gave a spruce

When water meets with heat

What does it produce?

The Water and Steam Museum

Clue 2:

In the war against pollution

Contaminating the Thames

GoodGym provides the solution

Picking plastic with our friends

Kew Bridge slipway

Clue 3:

Here we wrestled with a stubborn tree

And forgot those pesky gate codes

We scooped up leaves and other debris

At a school just off the Thames Road

Strand on the Green Primary School

Clue 4:

Our gardening skills are arbitrary

But there's a reason to be smug:

Healthy Chiswick trees of cherry

From all those soil beds that we dug

Staveley Rd cherry trees

Clue 5:

Marriages and town meetings

And our weekly meeting spot

Despite excessive central heating

It was our favourite place to squat

Chiswick Town Hall

Clue 6:

Here despite our obvious fitness

And impressive digging style

We found we still could not diminish

That enormous compost pile

Cultivate London - Enfield Rd

Clue 7:

Amid the enormous wall of brambles

That we battled to get clear

Despite the thorns that scratched our ankles

An ancient lodge did finally appear

Gunnersbury Park (the old lodge)

Clue 8:

The Packhorse did our fave grub

But at the Lamb we'd never hang out

Will we someday try this fast pub

Found on Chiswick roundabout?

The Express Tavern

Last night's mission was an annual Christmas one for us, and we were really pleased to meet Ibrahim from That's A Wrap to kick it off. This organisation aims to give a gift to every child in Hounslow who would not otherwise receive anything for Christmas, and our job for the evening was the spread the word about donations in the local area.

Ibrahim handed over 150 flyers, and after a quick photo op, off we went. We were soon delivering flyers super slickly, aiming for the roads where we knew the celebs lived - local knowledge comes in very useful!

Half an hour later the job was done so off we went for a very silly festive fitness session. The battle was on between The Sexy Snowmen and SuperGym, and after some tasks that included singing We Wish You A Merry Christmas while doing high knees, and getting your photo taken with Christmas decorations, it came out as a very festive draw!

Today we helped out the amazing Waste Not Want Not foundation packing 35 bags full of fruit and veg for the families of children who have free school meals and need a little extra help.

Not only were the bags full of lovely healthy fruit and veg, but all that good stuff would have otherwise been thrown away if Waste Not Want Not had not rescued it from new Covent Garden Market. We packed loads of watermelon, potatoes, cauliflowers, broccoli and more but it was finally the boxes and boxes of bananas that finally defeated us. All in all a peely good task.
