Philippa is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Lewisham Report written by Kim
An unusual week for us with a double task and a double mode of transport! We had 2 tasks in need of help tackling the weeks: Luxmore Garden and Florence Green.
Welcome to Philippa it was her first ever good deed and we hope to see you again soon!
Whilst Paul led the warm up I cycled off up the hill to wait at Luxmore for everyone to arrive (I can confirm that hill is just as bad when cycling). Once everyone arrived and the small group of Marta and Alison had headed to Florence Green to join Vic and Julian. It was time to get stuck into some weeding at both tasks.
The key thing at Luxmore is to always leave the ornamental grass but take out the non-ornamental grass which we always find tricky! There was plenty of alkinet and other weeds to be pulling up as well.
Over at Florence Green, the weeds between the hedge saplings that we helped plant needed to be removed to give the best chance of the hedges growing big and strong.
It was time to regroup as a whole group for the group photo and then back down the hill to Glass Mill.
Next weeks task is to Seniors!
