Tonight's group session seemed determined to test fate.

First, our original task was cancelled. Then, as if the gods weren't finished with us yet, England's men's football team reached the World Cup knockout stage, with their next match landing squarely on our GoodGym night!

Predicting many of us would be watching the game, Plan B was a litter pick in the beautiful Lamorbey Park for anyone not glued to the telly.

In the end, the litter pick was a solo affair, but every great team starts with at least one player!

By full time, one bag of rubbish had been collected, with lots of litter shown the red card.

As for the football? England secured the win, with Harry Kane finding the net twice. The litter-picking squad may have been small, but both teams can claim a successful result tonight.

Now let's hope England's next fixture remembers that Wednesday evenings are reserved for GoodGym!

Today's Danson House Producers Market had a distinctly superhero feel as we teamed up to help run Discover Welling's retro fairground games stall.

With the classic Leap Frog and Roll-A-Ball games, we encouraged market-goers of all ages to test their skills while raising funds for a great cause.

The stall attracted plenty of attention, helped in no small part by a visit from Spider-Man himself!

There were smiles, near misses, and a few spectacular victories as players embraced the challenge. As Spider-Man says, "Anyone can win a fight when the odds are easy", but propelling that frog onto the lily pad proved a little trickier!

Money raised from the games will support Welling's Christmas lights and Discover Welling's other community projects that help make the town a brighter, more welcoming place to live.

We had fun spinning a web of laughter and helping to ensure that, with great community spirit, great things can happen in Welling.

In a welcome respite from the intense heat of the last week Good Gym arrived at Woolwich Common for the monthly litter pick. I'm never quite sure if a good litter picks means lots of bags full of rubbish or the slim pickings that renew your faith in humanity a bit more. Today was more of the latter with most of us returning with relatively empty bags after an hour. The returns included the usual array of trash but todays highlights were some monopoly money and the longest tape measure your author has ever seen.

It was a little breezier than it has been during the recent heatwave, but that only made for an even more enjoyable morning at Hornfair junior parkrun.

Five GoodGymers joined the regular volunteer team, taking on a variety of roles including First Timers’ Welcome, Parkwalker, Marshals, Barcode Scanning, Funnel Manager and Number Checker.

This week’s event welcomed 39 juniors, including 2 first timers, while 6 runners celebrated shiny new PBs. Huge congratulations to every junior who took part, and a big thank you to all the fantastic volunteers who made it happen.

If you’ve never volunteered at junior parkrun before, why not give it a go? The roles are straightforward, the atmosphere is brilliant, and you’ll definitely leave with a smile. Come and join us next time!
