TRAID Needs You!
Who Are You Wearing?!
TRAID (Textile Reuse and International Development) is a UK charity working to tackle and solve the problems caused by producing, consuming and disposing of clothes. And their Wood Green store needs some help to get the floor ready for the next cycle of clothes. Come and help us sort out clothes, pack away hangers, and generally imbibe in some awesome ol' school GoodGym vibes. It'll be great!
We're really cool. Really!
GoodGym is a community of runners that combine getting fit with doing good. We stop off on our runs to do physical tasks for community organisations and to support isolated older people with social visits and one-off tasks they can't do on their own.
Go on, you know you want to!
We'll be meeting at Blue House Yard, run, do a good deed - all within 90 minutes. We meet at 6.45pm and leave by 7.00pm.
If you are new to all this, don't be shy and don't be worried about feeling left out, we make everyone feel very welcome. We welcome runners of all abilities and never leave anyone behind. If you have any questions please email me on euclides@goodgym.org
See you there!

To Err Is Human. But To Arr Is Pirate
6 rugged Goodgymmers, battles with the waves of North London as they ran to lend a hand to the wonderful LIteracy Pirates in Tottenham.
Kudos Corner
We are led to believe our very own Nurjehan turned a year older when in truth it looks like she's not aged a day over 21. All the same, a very happy birthday to our Haringey rock star! <3
Guts and Glory
When we were one, we ran around,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
Some orange pop to fizz my tum
A Pirates’ life for me’.
-
When we were two, Lordship Lane came into view,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
A velvety cake to fill my tum
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were three, we leafleted free,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
Avoid the dead fox, with an empty tum
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were four, we put up posters galore,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
Nurjehan bumped into an old chum,
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were five, ain't no time for no jive,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of River Lea.
Birthday shanties we sung,
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were six, it's time for pics,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
A selfie here, no one look glum,
A Pirate’s life for me’.

When we were seven, erm... what rhymes with seven,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
Heaven or Devon, that rhymes with seven,
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were eight, it was getting late
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:

Over the valley of the River Lea.
Time to plan the weekend's parkrun,
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were nine, Gramps wants some wine,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
We're done here now, time for home,
A Pirate’s life for me’.
-
When we were ten, we'll do it again,
The day we went to sea.
We climbed aboard a pirate ship
And good ol' Gramps said to me:
‘We’re going this way, that way,
Forwards backwards,
Over the valley of the River Lea.
Joined us next week for loads more fun
A Pirate’s life for me’.
