Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
This weeks doing good was helping Christine from Clean, Green and Highways clear a plot of land besides a factory on Belgrave road. The strip of land was over run with weeds and has been regally used as a dumping ground. Christine has arranged for new raised beds to be put on the plot and after 45mins the Good Gym had the rubbish collected and the weeds removed. It was really nice to see the local residence so happy with our efforts. Three people from separate homes came out to thank us and say how happy they where the plot was finally being used for something good. One lovely man even ran to the local shop and brought us all water. Good work gang!
As well as the 3k run there everybody was still full of energy after the task so we headed round to the canal side for some hard running. Splitting on the canal side we had choices of straight back to Victoria park, Bridge one and back or all the way down to Limehouse canal and back. We re grouped at Victoria park for a team get breath back before a light warm down jog back to the hotel.
Thanks to everybody who came despite the rain.
I had much fun, hope you did too.
Until next week.
BYEEEE!
