GoodGym Lambeth Run Report 🏃‍♀️✨

Mission: Operation Deep Clean at Max Roach Park

This week, our magnificent mob of do-gooders descended upon Max Roach Park for what can only be described as a rubbish time (in the best possible way)! 🗑️

Tom from Lambeth Council gave us our marching orders: wage war on litter with the fanciest grabbers this side of the Thames. We’re talking haute couture litter pickers, darling! 💅

The Great Divide

Our troops split into two elite squads:

Squad 1: The Litter Legends 🦸‍♂️
Armed with our premium picking equipment, we swept through the park like a well-oiled cleaning machine. No crisp packet was safe. No stray cup escaped our grasp. We came, we saw, we picked it up.

Squad 2: The Bottle Top Battalion 🍾
Meanwhile, the bench crew got down and dirty (literally), performing emergency surgery on the ground to extract embedded bottle tops. Talk about getting to the root of the problem! Their determination was truly cap-tivating. 💪🏼

Our Cast of Cleanup Crusaders

Shout out to our usual suspects who showed up ready to make Max Roach Park sparkle:

🌟 Andrej, Dan, Tilly, Michael, Eric, and Jo 🌟

Special mention to Jo, whose homemade flapjacks provided the perfect fuel for our litter-fighting endeavors. Nothing says “community spirit” quite like baked goods that actually stick to your ribs after picking up rubbish! 🍪🤗

The Verdict

Another week, another park saved from the scourge of litter. We came for the fitness, stayed for the bins, and left with that warm fuzzy feeling that only comes from making your community a cleaner place (and maybe from Jo’s flapjacks).

Until next week, keep running, keep doing good, and remember: every piece of litter picked is one step closer to a trashy-free Lambeth!

Total Trash Talk: MAXIMUM 📈
Good Deeds Done: COUNTLESS
Puns Made: TOO MANY 😄


Keep calm and carry on picking! See you next week, legends! 🎉
