GoodGym Lambeth Run Report: The Great Tree Heist of 2026 🌲

Date: First group session of 2026
Mission: Christmas Tree Recycling on Clapham Common
Status: Absolutely smashed it! 💪

The Return of the Champions 🏆

What a way to kick off the new year! We were pining for our first session of 2026, and boy did it deliver. The gang assembled for an absolute classic - hunting down abandoned Christmas trees across Clapham and dragging them to their final resting place on the Common.

Special shoutouts to our prodigal runners:

• Andy made his triumphant return after more than 5 years away (we promise the trees haven’t changed that much!)
• Eric was back at it after his hiatus - clearly couldn’t stay away from the tree-mendous fun
• Louise crossed the river to rejoin us after over a year away from Lambeth sessions - we’re so glad she branched back out to visit! 🤗

The Dream Team Assemble 💪

Our fantastic regulars were there doing what they do best (spoiler: it’s pulling up trees, literally):

• Jo ✨
• Fi ✨
• Ben ✨
• Michael ✨

You lot are the root of everything we do! 😊

The Final Tally 📊

After racing around Clapham like festive tree-hunting squirrels, we managed to shift an absolutely fir-ocious 38.5 trees (yes, really - someone clearly couldn’t bear to part with half their tree) plus a few wreaths to boot! 🌲🎄

We’re not saying we’re heroes, but we definitely spruced up the neighborhood.

Same time next week? We’ll leaf you to think about it! 🍃
