It was another hot evening for our GoodGym Hounslow group run, but with blue skies and a perfect task ahead of us, it was set to be a great evening.

Great to see Maria and Jalal joining us for a Hounslow group session—we hope it's one of many!

Our destination was the much-loved Turnham Green mural, a colourful local landmark that celebrates the area's history and has become a familiar backdrop for residents, commuters and visitors . Sitting in such a busy spot means it gets plenty of attention—and, inevitably, plenty of grime—so giving it a good annual clean is an important way to help keep it looking its best.

Armed with mops, scrubbers and plenty of elbow grease, 12 of us got stuck in. Before long, the mural was looking brighter, fresher and ready to continue welcoming everyone passing through Turnham Green.

We attracted plenty of interest from passers-by as we worked. Most were appreciative, stopping to say thank you and complimenting the effort. One curious observer asked if we were "trying to keep out of prison." No, we're not doing community service, even if we can frequently be found out on the run!

With the mural sparkling, it was time to head over to Turnham Green for a set of inventive planks - although everyone had to keep an eye out for the rather spiky bits while holding their positions.

We finished with a gentle run back, stretches and a well-earned cool down. Thanks to Gus for today's pun-spiration,

Don't forget we've got Community Missions in Brentford this weekend, and next Wednesday we're back at Turnham Green for another great evening. And yes - there will definitely be mitigations in place should England make it through to the next round! Sign up here!
