Ealing Report written by StephDucat
Another week and another visit to Mrs R : more weeding? Yes, but in the back garden and also some tree trimming. Last week it was very hot and today it was raining. Time to weed out the bad!!That's a hi expectation. Trimmed the tree which I forgot to take an "after picture" as busy fighting the weed. Then filled half a green bin full of weed, brambles and bindweed. The final weed bouquet completed. I was also asked to sort out the lavender section as dropping to the ground : found some bamboo sticks to hold it back up straight. Lavender is always in bloom. The rain held off - just a few drops! Goodbye weed - until next time.

Enthusiasm for taking part in Acton Junior parkrun was a bit low this week as the runners could see that it wasn't summer anymore by looking out of their windows. The rain held off for the parkrun, it was just miserable before and after, making the achievement of the 37 finishers all the more impressive.
Divya almost missed out on completing his 250th good deed - which he only mentioned after the run - with the Run Director searching around for her missing funnel manager. He did make it on time though to keep children in order and heading straight through the funnel to collect their finish tokens from Joanna. Ahead of the start, most GoodGymers were more concerned with a smaller number. The number of sides on the sculpture that Ariane would be marshalling at. The ad-hoc marshal point for the day that Alan discovered was made up of dodecahedrons ("the big metal things") and was actually meant for bouldering.
Around the course, Steph took on the role of tail walker, encouraging the children at the back to keep going to the finish. Kash was barcode scanning and Alan tried to keep time, battling his iPhone screen that was sensitive to raindrops and could randomly record phantom runners. Sevan was also marshalling and spotted one cheeky participant run through a gate late and join his friend at around 1/3rd distance.

Sevan and Steph Ducat met at Ealing Broadway Station for a chatty run to Acton Junior parkrun. A few drops at the start of the 3km run which increased on the run. It was raining cats and dogs when we arrived at the park.
