The start of the week, much like Pancake Day, just creped up on us - but in Wandsworth that is the best day of the week! And it was made even better last night at our GoodGym run with some lovely GG tourism from Barnet, Lewisham and Lambeth and with four excellent runners making their GoodGym debut! Welcome to the gang Halina, Vanessa and Katherine. Give them a cheer, team!

We also had ace Anji, trainer for the newest GoodGym area, Newcastle, choose Wandsworth for her first every GoodGym run which is pretty excellent. Watch this space for news from our most northerly group!

It was a big well done for David, who ran his way to a new half marathon PB in Worthing at the weekend, and we had a fantastic milestone to celebrate as Matthew officially got his wings with his 100th good deed. Way to go!

If you needed any more inspiration after all that running and do gooding news, we had Stephen from Lewisham share his inspirational story, telling us how he has gone from being new to London and able to run for five minutes, to completing two marathons and making a whole new group of good friends. Lovely stuff!

Heading outside for our warm up we marked Pancake Day by naming our favourite toppings. Nutella hit the top spot, with the classic lemon and sugar following not far behind, with more exotic ingredients including bacon and maple syrup and apricot jam.

Hungrier, we set off for our run, which was probably one of the shortest ever at only half a mile. Our task tonight was at Providence House, an amazing youth club which aims to support young people as individuals, to provide a safe and nurturing environment and is open to everybody without discrimination or judgment. If you want to get more involved with this brilliant organisation by volunteering more or in any other way, they are always looking for help so drop the lovely Nina a note at Nina.providencehouse@gmail.com. For last night though, our job was to give the place a massive clean. The incredibly organised Nina had prepared an extensive list of jobs which included mopping and sweeping allt he halls, cleaning up outside, giving the kitchen and media room a good seeing to, and clearing a cupboard for a new fridge which will store food that would otherwise be wasted. Phew!

We were kindly loaned the use of the sports hall for our fitness session and so avoided the cold and mud (this time!), and so as soon as we had finished all the jobs, we got stuck into a mammoth circuits session followed by a few core exercises thrown in for good measure. Waving goodbye to Providence House we could have called it a night there, but instead decided to smash out a few hill reps, concentrating on a couple of technical form points. That was us well and truly done, but not with out a few stretches. All the fun must have gone to my head as I gave you a bit of misinformation for next week - we're not actually going to a school, but to a disability centre to help sort out their outside areas and wash windows. You'll still need your head torches, so bring them along if you can and sign up here. Enjoy those pancakes, people!
