Leaf(let) it out, no Jason?!
12 GoodGymers made their way 6.0km to help the Hammersmith & Fulham Volunteer Centre in Hammersmith and Fulham.
- Tuesday, 14th of November 2017

The line up
Since the launch of Hammersmith and Fulham Goodgym, there has been one runner who has made it along to every single run. Unfortunately, stifled by a chest infection Jason couldn’t make it along. Hope you feel better soon dude!
On an awesome note we had four brand new Goodgymers - Welcome Lauren, Simone, Josie and Rebecca. And Victoria from Lambeth doing a spot of touristing.
Use your run
We started the night with the usual intro speech and another reminder about the next social on 21st Nov and Putney 10k on 3rd Dec. Then we piled outside for a warmup. Almost forgetting to shoo the chickens at the end - thanks for the reminder Sarah & Johnny.
Then we headed off towards Bayonne Estate to meet two ladies from Community Champions Project for Bayonne & Field Road. An organisation supported by the government to promote good mental health and wellbeing. Tonight we were tasked with delivering their monthly newsletter out to these two estates.
We were given maps of the estates and spilt into two teams of 6. Breaking down into further pairs to tackle a block of flats each.
Both groups cover a huge amount in a short space of time. Managing to get back at the meeting point for 8.10pm and back to the leisure centre in perfect timing.
