Sun’s out, weeds out!

Wednesday 8th July

Written by Isaac Beevor (He/him)

Goodgym Southwark braved the heatwave to run to help clear weeds and tidy up at the Old Alleynian Rugby Club.

After finishing off some Moams, we jogged back and then headed to Franks for a rooftop drink!

Small seeds, big blooms ahead

Wednesday 29th April

Written by Emma McNally

We enjoyed a lovely, sunny run over to Old Alleynian Rugby Club. Once there, we got stuck into a few tasks for the evening, including sweeping the astro, scraping paint, and planting sunflowers 🌻. To round off the session, we had a fun game of touch rugby. As it was Ian’s birthday, we also got to celebrate with some well-earned cake before heading back.

Wednesday Group Run

Wednesday 18th March

Written by Emma McNally

We met at old spike and ran over to meet Ian at the Old Alleynian Rugby Club on a beautiful clear evening. Six of us got to work clearing the entrance to the club and the driveway. We cut back and raked away the nettles. It was a satisfying task! We had some delicious ginger biscuits as a treat at the end before running back.

Glass act.

Wednesday 11th February

Written by Emma McNally

It was another rainy evening in London when we gathered at Old Spike. After a quick warm-up, we set off on our 3K run to the Old Alleynian Rugby Club, grateful that Ian had thoughtfully arranged an indoor task to shelter us from the weather.

Our mission for the night was to tackle the changing room windows, which were certainly overdue a proper clean. Armed with cloths and determination, we scrubbed away the grime, and the transformation was instantly rewarding and the whole space felt brighter as a result.

To top it all off, Ian generously treated us to some chocolate before we headed back out into the drizzle for our run home—a sweet end to a productive evening.

Pane-staking work

Wednesday 21st January

Written by Emma McNally

Five of us gathered on a rainy January evening at Old Spike—those brave enough to face the weather. We were delighted to welcome Charlotte, who was new to Southwark GG but already a seasoned GoodGymer. We set off on a 3k run through the rain to the Old Alleynian Rugby Club, where Ian was waiting for us.

Thoughtfully, he had found us a sheltered task: giving the clubhouse windows a much-needed clean. After our hard work, we were rewarded with delicious homemade brownies baked by Ian’s wife—a perfect treat!

Feeling accomplished and well-fed, we ran back to Old Spike, spirits high despite the rain.
