So lovely to see some new faces at our group run last - a huge welcome to all of you who came for your first run at Wandsworth and to Vanessa, whose first every GoodGym experience it was!

We started off with some warm ups, and a chat about our fave ice cream flavours - joint winners were salted caramel and mint choc chip. Excellent choices!

Dreaming of ice cream we set off for ChristChurch primary school, a favourite task of ours, but one we haven't been able to return to for ages. They have an amazing secret garden which is a beautiful learning resource for the kids, and after so long, there was plenty for us to do. We shifted rubbish, tested our expertise weeding, and did some heavy lifting, all under the watchful eye of our visiting Pup. After half an hours solid work, we admired the new learning area made possible from the jobs we did there last time, and munched on some freshly picked raspberries as our reward.

Over to the park for a conditioning session, we did some furry intense exercises, with some more than pawsable planks, squats and press-ups, all without any paws at all.

After that, it was a short run back to the BAC, some stretches and a cool down. Brilliant work everybody! We have a lovely community mission next week, you can sign up here] (https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/tackling-a-massive-woodpile-and-other-jobs). Until then, run happy!
