What a day for a GoodGym trail run! Yesterday we headed out onto Wimbledon Common, and despite it being October and technically Autumn, the weather hadn’t got the memo. It was a hot 20C and many of us found we regretted our decision to wear layers!

We welcomed Guldjan to her first GoodGym session - lovely to meet you! - and settled into a great pace. The trails were beautiful and leafy, with plenty of hills to keep things interesting. Along the way we explored some of the Common’s more exciting landmarks, including the Big Alp, Little Alp and the infamous Toast Rack. There was even the added excitement of navigating around the golf course and successfully avoiding being taken out by any stray golf balls! ⛳️

After a good run, we finished up at a pub that felt like we’d been transported to the countryside — the perfect place to cool down, relax and give ourselves a pat on the back.

A brilliant run, great company and plenty of ideas for where to explore next. Richmond was mentioned so keep an eye out for the next GoodGym trail adventure! 👀

Thanks everyone for making it such a fun one and to Catherine for plotting us a beautiful route. 🌿💪

We were due to help our friends at GROAD get their new venue ready at GreenWorks 🛠️. But Andrea got held up at their storage facility, so all we could manage was a spot of weeding outside. 🌿😅

But as GGers, when life gives you lemons 🍋... we head to the pub(for grown up lemonade)! The group finished early and made it to the social double quick, where Ben (despite his jet lag ✈️😴) had organised a quiz for us. It was a quizzical turn of events, but a wonderfully fun one!

GG Lambeth showed its competitive side (well, some of us did 👀), and our two teams took 1st 🥇 and 3rd 🥉 on the podium!! 🥳 Clearly we're as sharp with our brains as we are with our trowels 🧠

Join us next month at the social, when we'll be spending our winnings 💰 and making full use of the karaoke facilities 😱🎤🎙️ You have been warned!

A lovely evening, fun friends to share it with and another great task well done(ish)! 🧰❤️
