GGxWWF Earth Hour Special Run - It's goat to be earth it

Lambeth Report written by Paul Bown

On a Special GGxWWF Run 27 Goodgymers ran 5km to help Spitalfields City Farm

Thank you all for coming and I hope you had fun! Welcome to newbies - Sam, Heidi, Grace, Luke, Jack, Jie, Non, Holly and Karolina - great to have you along.

So on a rather warm spring evening GoodGym was partnering with WWF in celebration of Earth Hour. This is a global campaign overseen by the WWF to raise awareness of environmental issues. It takes place this Saturday 30th March at 8:30pm-9:30pm (local time), join millions around the world to turn off the lights and speak up about why nature matters.

We collected together from 5pm and then did some introductions - first Rachel explained all about WWF and Earth Hour. Remember to tell your mum all about it when you call/see her on mother's day!

Then we got moving and grooving with a big dynamic warm up plus some conditioning + running in pairs - nice! Feeling ready to go we headed up and over Tower Bridge, and then onto Aldgate and Whitechapel. Everyone was really agile in the crowds and kept a good pace up between the traffic lights.

Environmental Impact!

Upon our arrival at Spitalfields City Farm we met Emily and her team, she explained the tasks which were as follows:

  • Shovelling muck, to be wheelbarrowed away to make way for a toilet or bagged up and sold on.
  • Organising an area of planks, wood and materials.
  • Shifting tons of logs from one place to another
  • Sweeping and tidying up

Over an hour of lifting, shifting, moving, grooving, shovelling and sweeping we made a massive difference to the Farm and helped them to prepare for the Cambridge & Oxford Goat and Sheep Race! There were 27 of us so that's 27 hours of volunteering done for our local community - absolutely huge!

After finishing our tasks we enjoyed seeing the various animals - including a 11 hour old lamb! We collected together and took a group photo before running down hill home - fun!

Thanks for a brilliant evening guys! Sign up for GoodGym Runs near you here.
