14 runners ran 4km to help with some gardening.

It was an extremely chilly Wednesday evening, but that didn't stop new runner Ana joining us on an outdoor gardening task.

After formalities and the obvious 'Name, number and... favourite part of the week' (Sarah I don't knowhow you come up with a new favourite -fill gap here- every week) we quickly warmed up with a fun game of 'stuck in the mud'. Alex and Steve did what they do best and teamed up to pick everyone out, with a little help from fellow GG veteran Ben.

Off went down a slightly different route lead by Matt to The Christ Church Community Gardens where we were met by Kate. Everyone was quickly divided up into different jobs such as sanding benches, digging holes and chopping up branches. I think the most rewarding job was completed by Andy who get to pull out the kale, which we were told we could take home with us, so Andy did just that, after sharing the goods with fellow GoodGymers.

Quadrangle of fun

A quick jog back to the University, and you guessed it, it's TIME TRIAL WEEK!! Max effort was put in by all runners, sprinting 4 times around the Greenwich Quadrangle of fun. With a bit of time to spare, we finished with a little ab blaster, pairing up - sorry I was a rubbish partner Christian - to (k)nail a set of sit ups and planks. All washed down with a beer or two at the monthly social.

Huge effort as always guys, and remember, usual service resumes next week as Sarah will be back.
