A humid Wednesday evening bought us to woolwich for a gentle run to our old haunt, Glyndon. Tonight we were tasked with cleaning up the driveway and weeding the gravel in the garden which was done with our usual efficiency if I do say so myself. Heartened by the difference we made in a short space of time, we headed back to enjoy the rest of our evenings. Good work team!
Next week is gardening at Christchurch!
Until next time.

Unlucky for some but not us, 13 GoodGymers gathered outside Glass Mill ready to tackle the hills to help the garden team at Seniors.
We skipped the warm up this week in favour for a steady run as a group to Seniors as it's a bit of a longer run and I'd spent too long chatting as usual!
At Senior's, Alice had a big list for us to get through which included: - watering the plants - admiring the plants in the poly tunnel after we did some hot bedding - clearing the weeds that were growing through the cracks in the building - planting tomato plants - covering the stems of the tomato plants with vaseline to protect from slugs - moving the fly tipped woodchip from the front of the building to near the poly tunnel
Anyone who wasn't there and happens to think "who would fly tip woodchip". It's the same question we thought and the same question the gardening team at Senior's though. Next time, a little request that they fly tip in a more convenient location for the gardening team. Luckily for us, it was a good workout moving it in wheelbarrows.
Most of us frequented the local drinking establishment whilst the rest of the group tackled the hills back to Glass Mill.
Big cheers for Khai who completed his longest run yet!! Amazing effort especially on those hills. We'll make sure next weeks group run is a short and flat route...it actually is!
We have a brand new group run next week to The Ladywell Unit to help in their garden. It's around 1km there so 2km in total.

A GoodGym contingent helped out at the test event for the new Hornfair Park junior parkrun. The shorter version of parkrun comes to Hornfair Park from July 28th - complementing Charlton parkrun just a couple of streets away - but today was about making sure everything worked with a handful of youngsters out running.
It went really well, there was lots of interest from passers-by and hopefully the event will bring lots more people to a park that's often overlooked, despite having a BMX track, tennis courts, summer paddling pool and Charlton Lido. It's all systems go for next week...
