10 of us met for our monthly social Park Run - this month at Preston Park. We also welcomed down first-timer Natasha from Tower Hamlets! It was beautiful running conditions.

After a post-run warmdown we headed for a special refuel. A favourite bakery of Pippa , Cielo, were opening a new branch at 10am only minutes away from Preston Park. We arrived there just before 10 in time to join the queue for the grand opening. After recovering with huge brownies, dookies (apparently a thing) and coffees we went off on our ways.

Fools Spring came and went, and on a colder than expected Tuesday evening 14 GoodGymmers made their way to the BMECP centre - ready to help them keep their communal spaces clean and tidy.

After a tour of the building, we split into groups and got working. Our tasks for the evening included cleaning the kitchens, sorting cupboards, tidying away second hand books (some of which were over 100 years old...!) stacking tables and chairs, and wiping down whiteboards.

Once again, we proved that many hands make light work, and once our job was done a few of us made our way to The Lord Nelson for a post-mission pint and quiz. Turns out we're not just great at cleaning, we're also pretty good at naming popular ice-creams* - earning us 1st place!!

*The question for anyone wondering was what are the 5 most popular flavours of icecream in the UK after Vanilla, Chocolate and Strawberry? Answers on a postcard please.....
