Helen buxton has done their first good deed with GoodGym.

Helen is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Fitter with Twitter

It's Twitter's 10th anniversary, and what better way to celebrate than by constructing a run report from tweets?

So, we had both a task and a mission tonight.

Danica, Aidan and Debbie were the missioners.

Danica (@DanicaPriest) tweeted:

We ran 6k to change 90yo Constance's curtains on a @GGIsling mission. Constance cracked up at @ajpadfield 's joke & Buster the cat was cute

Aidan (@ajpadfield) added:

Enjoyed a longer run with these two Lovely to meet @DanicaPriest coach, a very chatty and funny woman. (photo of Aidan, Debbie and Danica attached)

The rest of us, including first timers Helen and Andrew, and first timers to Islington Mo/Mohammed/Mush and Steve headed up to West London Mission - who provide a hostel and counselling services - to help clear up their back garden.

As Kike (@kagunbiade) explains:

short and sweet this week. We managed to get loads of garden clearing done inc destroying some nasty trailing brambles.

Patrick (@patrickluonguk) describes how Simon found a bone and wasn't sure what to do with it: (photo of Simon looking surprised at bone attached)

The bone of contention! Does a bone count as litter or compost? Where did it end up @SimonLoughran?

Post run we hit the fields for a combination of exercises and a continuous relay.

Graham (@guywholikesmuse) says:

Sprints into lunges was total #mondaynightmadness - great burst of energy to finish off the session

Alex (@alxndrleon) summarised the evening in a poem:

this week - just half a mile, raking dirt in piles, relay time trials and all round smiles :)

And Steve (@steveleedesign) did the whole evening with emojis (which doesn't display very well here. See photos for the full set):

Simon (@simonloughran) wasn't happy with the outcome of the social media debate and expressed his rage via a tweet:

We discuss the important questions at @ggisling and Facebook beat Twitter in the big debate last night #wrongoutcome

Biscuit of the week was announced pre-run by @ggisling itself:

Get down! (with a photo attached of three bags of new Digestive Nibbles)

So, there you have it. A big thanks to WLM and Anita for hosting us. We hope to be back soon and make a real project of it.

See you next week for a trip to Thornhill Square and some Hot (or cold) Cross Buns

Simon

We discuss the big issues at GG Islington. - "Which ones are weeds and which ones arenโ€™t?" - "Well everything is a weed really." - "Thatโ€™s true. Itโ€™s just a matter of opinion." Profound philosophical ruminations followed. (Or possibly this was profound chewing of digestive biscuits.)
