First things first, a big thank you to all the Hackney Moves Run Club runners who got stuck into their first ever GoodGym task. In a change from their usual agenda, they joined forces with GoodGym to put their bundles of energy to good use relaying the woodchip path at Springfield Park.

We gathered at Stronghold Climbing Centre where we started with a GoodGym x Hackney Moves intro. We had a couple of pacers throughout the group who were on hand to chat to the runners about their goals for Hackney Half Marathon and hopefully become a friendly face on race day!

It wasn't long before we arrived in Springfield Park to meet Ash who directed us to the huge pile of mulch and the path that needed relaying.

In true GoodGym fashion, we split into groups: - Diggers: those piling the woodchip into the wheelbarrows - Wheelbarrowers: transporting the woodchip to the path - Rakers: spreading the woodchip once it was delivered

Time flies when you're having fun and before we knew it, it was time to head back to the start point!

We made a huge difference tonight and hope everyone enjoyed their first experience of getting out into the community and doing good whilst also getting fit.

The Hackney Moves Team had kindly provided drinks to keep us hydrated post-run whilst we had a quick chat about all things GoodGym and Hackney Moves Run Club.
