Double task week and a double new GG-er's week - my favourite kind of week. Welcome Kirsti and Olga, we hope to see you at many more group runs!

In the continued saga of my Kim-jury, I was taking public transport to the task after being told I'm not allowed to cycle. Paul and Oli kindly led their groups to the correct tasks - thank you!

The tasks for this evening were to clear the litter at The Albany and clear the weeds at Florence Green. Fortunately for the hedges but unfortunately for us, the dry weather had meant that there weren't as many weeds as we expected!

Don't forget it's the grand opening party of Florence Green on Sunday!

Sun-day at Lesnes Abbey Woods junior parkrun for a hi-viz double-act by GoodGym Bexley and GoodGym Greenwich 😎.

Between us we tail walked, park walked, marshaled and barcode scanned while the young runners and their overheating parents completed the three lap course.

After cooling iced coffees at the Chestnuts kiosk, we made our way by bus and bike to Erith to join more GoodGymer friends for a lovely chatty walk along the Thames to Woolwich.

What a lovely morning.

A lovely session at Mycenae Gardens today as we tackled the ever-determined weeds with plenty of energy – and a sweet reward at the end!

We were delighted to welcome Sam to his very first GoodGym session – great to have you on board Sam, and we hope it’s the first of many!

Fuelled by sunshine the team made great progress clearing bed 4 and Arthur did a mighty job finding as many pine cones as he could. A huge thank you to one of the Friends of Mycenae Gardens volunteers for the delicious cake – always appreciated and very much enjoyed!

After our efforts, we treated ourselves to a well-earned coffee at the café, catching up and winding down. A perfect end to a productive morning.

Well done team – as always, you smashed it! 💪

Coming up:

Tomorrow: Join us for a scenic river walk – a great chance to stretch those legs and enjoy the views.

Next Wednesday we’re heading to the Memorial Hospital for our very first task there, note a 6.30pm start to give us longer to get up that hill!

Until next time! 👟🌼
