Hopping over manure ๐Ÿ’ฉ

Southwark Report written by Sam Lefevre (he/him)

Despite a fury of rain at the start of this session, which many of us escaped, Daryl, Laura, Lindy, Sam and Vic met up Kate from Surrey Docks Farm for our monthly session with her.

There were two main tasks at hand - bagging up manure and weeding / removing the vine-y hops off the fence.

After getting the necessary tools, we split the group in two. Daryl, Lindy and Sam were tasked with bagging up and throwing back manure. Lindy and Sam bagged up the manure and did 14 bags within an hour whilst Daryl flung back the straw type manure to the back of the heap.

Meanwhile, Laura, Vic and Kate concentrated upfront as they pulled back the hops and weeded the path to keep the council happy.

As always, the last 30 minutes of these sessions are dedicated to cuddle with the animals. Our animal of choice this time were the sheep, but they weren't in the mood to cuddle (bar one or two), so we went over to the goats who were more affectionate.

Thanks Kate for hosting and see you next month! ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ

Blitzing those brambles

Greenwich Report written by Bexley runner

It's been a while since we last attacked the brambles at St George's Garrison Church and nature had fought back in the intervening months.

Armed with a somewhat bizarre array of tools, we resumed our battle against the prickly invaders, cutting them back and digging out the roots.

Twelve barrow-loads later we surrendered to the lure of the GoodGym picnic in the adjacent park.

Such a lovely way to spend a Saturday morning.

For Goodness Snake

Lewisham Report written by Kim Parker

Another week, another chance to do some good in the borough of Lewisham. This week we were heading to The Albany to tackle the never ending supply of litter that blows in from the surrounding streets (and also gets thrown into the garden)!

It was a shorter run to The Albany where we split into groups to tackle the litter and also split into recycling and rubbish. As always we found some gems including a lime, a frisbee and a lot of beer cans!

With The Albany closing at 8pm, it wasn't long before we dropped our rubbish bags off at the bin store and gathered outside for a group photo.

On the way back, we confusingly detoured to the Waterlink Way so that we could take part in an exercise called "The Snake" - it probably does have a better name than that! The group ran slowly in a line, making sure to keep the pace steady whilst the person at the back sprinted to the front and once they arrived, shouted go for the next person to sprint and so on and so on. It's a great exercise to add in a variety of paces and the Waterlink Way gives us the perfect stretch of pavement.

Next week is a mystery task at the moment! See you there!

Mighty Morph-hunting Goodgym Racers

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice

6 Goodgym legends met at The Running Works (independent running shop in Aldgate) on Saturday evening to take part in "Morph's Epic Art Adventure", a sculpture trail based across the City of London boroughs.

For those who don't know, Morph is a creation of artist and BBC children's TV presenter Tony Hart and Aardman studios. A claymation character with the ability to morph like play dough to help his friends. The old clips can be found on various streaming websites, and are still delightful!

79 colourful sculptures have been installed across town, and our Goodgym team successfully tracked down 30 Morphs and mini Morphs in just over an hour, running across Tower and London bridges, around Bankside, through Borough Market and towards Bishopsgate.
