With the wind in our sails

Lambeth Report written by Katie Welford

We did a nice warm up and then split off into a long run and short run groups. George C took the long runners off on a nice 5km loop around Brockwell Park.

The rest of us headed 1.5km up to Brixton Windmill. This historic building is a hidden gem and the surrounding gardens are used to grow wheat and hops. Our job was to fill up three big tubs with soil and remove and replant some shrubbery.

It's good enough. Said Jean

High praise indeed.

People got digging, wheelbarrowing and moving the soil with their hands. As the long run group turned up, we had nearly finished so we left a small number there with Jean to finish up. The rest headed back to base and went through some running drills. The focus was on keeping the body forward and hips high when running, with our feet falling under our body.

After some nice stretches, we headed off home.

Lyndsay run their first missions with GoodGym.

Lyndsay has just done something they've never done before. Lyndsay has just run a mission; they've changed their running route and run to help someone who really needed their help.

Our weeding is definitely above par-snip

Holland Town Estate is a familiar destination for GoodGym Lambeth on a Tuesday night but with it getting too dark in the evenings we made a Sunday morning visit to help Ameena and some residents do weeding and bulb planting. While Graham got a lesson in how to cut back buddleia and think about how best to embody the borough of Islington at the Christmas party, Sophie and Beth turned over soil and Lyndsay and Josh planted bulbs along Brixton Road.

With that area now looking much tidier we moved to the playground where more weeding and bulb planting was required. We started off under lovely blue skies, reassuring Graham that shorts were indeed the right choice on this cold winter's day, but after a while the skies became grey so it was a bit of a race to get everything finished up before the rain. Some great teamwork meant that weeds, and a surprisingly large amount of parsnips, were removed, bulbs planted and mulch spread in no time.

Lyndsay completed their first run in a new area.

Curious? Lyndsay has just run their first session in another area. For that explorative spirit Lyndsay is awarded the scout badge. A Scout is trustworthy

S-hear'd it through the grapevine

4 runners ran 8.2k and were joined by 3 more to perform a variety of tasks at the Easton Community Allotment.

It was a gloriously sunny morning, just perfect for a run along the Bristol to Bath cycle path to one of our favourite venues, the Easton Community Allotment, which as always provided a cornucopia of delights, where there is never a shortage of goodness to perform.

Dave, Sarah, Alice and Sion met up at Roll For The Soul and after a brief introduction for this experienced group we were on our way, stopping briefly on Castle Green for a pitstop (well you can't just ignore a row of portable loos can you?) and a quick watch of a community choir performing a rendition of Katy Perry's Firework (rather apt considering we were heading to a place where we had been clearing up after some fire damage during our last Saturday run there) we made light work of the run to Easton.

On arrival, we met up with Rich B, who was already hard at work with a saw on some thick branches, and Praminda and Richard S, who were getting their instructions from our host, the wonderful Cristina. One thing you can be sure of with Cristina is that she would have plenty for us to do and we were not disappointed.

Praminda was doing a fine job of litter picking, whilst Alice and Sion set about cutting back grass and weeds from the roadside edge of the allotment, with Sarah trimming a grassy patch within the grounds of the allotment.

In the meantime, Richard S and Dave set about clearing branches and brambles that had been left in the road, into a nearby ditch.

Following this Sarah, Rich B and Dave set about shifting some bricks and wooden sleepers, whilst Praminda and Richard S loaded wooden chippings into containers ready for use in the allotment.

At the same time, both armed with shears, Alice and Sion were asked to attack the grapevine (and yes everyone's pun radar went off at the same time!) that had rather taken over part of the perimeter fence.

The time flew by, such an enjoyable task, and what a wonderful way to celebrate Alice's 50th GoodGym run - you could say we were in Wonderland! Well done Alice, you star - see you in the black shirt soon!

Saying our goodbyes to Cristina and to Rich, Praminda and Richard it was back to base for celebratory food and beer, followed by a saunter back to Castle Green to watch a great bit of visual and musical entertainment, performed by Extraordinary Bodies, a leading integrated circus company.

Next group run is on Tuesday - there will be cake! Yay!
