24 Goodgymers ran between 5-7km to make beds for the homeless and deliver leaflets for Green Gym

Thank you to everyone who came along last night and welcome to Claire whose first time it was - lovely to have you along.

In the news this week:

  1. GG Camden is 5 years young in April, we are going to have a birthday party at Skip Garden on Thursday 12th April. It's gonna be good - come along!
  2. Well done to Frances who hit 250 Good Deeds last night, that's a lot of GOOD!
  3. Also a massive well done to Hayley who recently hit 50 good deeds - awesome!

Beds Report:

14 of us headed for our winter task at American International Church to help C4WS make beds for the homeless. Everyone did really well covering two rooms of 15 beds.

Technique as ever is important with bed making, Claire thinks the inside out quilt approach is worth it - makes the end part easier!

Everyone loves the cat!

After completing the task, saying good bye to the cat and taking a group picture we were off. Once we reached Russell Square we got going with our fitness session a reverse pyramid - increasing our speed as the time of sets decreased and then back up. Everyone did really well and completed 11 minutes of tough interval running.

Leaflet Report:

Pritesh led a band of 8 north to Kentish Town to leaflet for the charity Green Gym about their amazing conservation volunteers at Montpelier Gardens. The team spread out nicely covering 5-6 different streets, closes and crescents until the job was complete. Nice one - 200 leaflets done!

On their way home they headed via the canal and Granary Square for some fitness fun!

Sign up for next week here we are gardening for Abbey, making beds for C4ws and hopefully a 3rd task.

PB out.
