Wednesday 5th November
Report written by Sarah W
Tonight’s task was all about spreading the word about the Welling Sparkle ✨ — the town’s festive Christmas market organised by Discover Welling — by putting up promotional stickers along the High Street to help get everyone excited about the event!
After welcoming Hannah and Paul to their very first GoodGym session, we did a quick warm-up then set off on a 1.3k chatty run to meet the rest of the gang at our first lamp post rendezvous.
With the supermoon glowing above 🌕 and the distant popping of fireworks 🎆 (it is the 5th of November, after all!), we split into two groups to cover both sides of the road. It wasn’t meant to be a race, but a little friendly competition emerged over which team could finish their side first!
Along the way, it was lovely to chat with a few curious passersby who asked about the Welling Sparkle.
Seventy-eight lamp posts later, it was mission accomplished! After a brisk walk back to Crook Log with lots of chatting, we wrapped up another fun and productive evening.
We’ll be back in Welling next week for more lamp post duty — taking down the Remembrance poppies. Hope to see you there!
