13 massive legends met this evening for a run and a good deed.
We were helping out Get Rid Of & Donate (GROAD) with some leafleting to get more people to donate their unused things for rough sleeper and refugee projects.
First, we met at Papa's, welcomed brand-new-to-GoodGym Charlotte, Vic and Nick - đź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Ź
Then we had our SPOTM prize to give out:
Poster Boy ✉️
The worthy recipient of a foam pig, 2 Brixton Brewery stickers, a “Run Sandringham” buff and a historic Lambeth walks leaflet - Adam! Who has done an incredible about of good over the last month (17 good deeds) across 4 different areas. So good.
After a quick warm up, we ran over to Herne Hill to meet Andrea from GROAD who gave us a load of leaflets and instructed us on the areas to cover.
My group had a pretty easy run up Half Moon Lane (though there was lots of running between some big houses…)
Frances & co had the maze of Delawyck Crescent to navigate (which they think they did successfully?!)
And Nathan’s team ran a bit further, towards Dulwich, though they hit some issues…
Lost Property đźŹ
Magda found a good side road to flyer, but when she came back out the others were gone…
Thankfully she turned up back at our meeting point having taken a little diversion so all was fine in the end.
It even gave the rest of us a chance to warm up with some circuits - wall sits, jumping jacks and squats!
We then had a speedy run back to base for some stretches.
Great stuff guys!! 🔥🔥
Don’t let your rejected items end up abandoned on streets or in landfills, where they can sit disintegrating and damaging our environment. Reach out to Get Rid Of and Donate, arrange a free collection for your unwanted goods and help us be there for everyone who needs us.
