12 Hackney GoodGymers ran 4.5k to help Hollybush Community Garden.
Thanks for looking after me this evening!!
Social next week after group run to celebrate Toyin’s 50th GoodDeed!! going to a Thai restaurant on Mare street post Group Run be great if you could make it along!
Running down to Hollybush Community Garden this evening to see the amazing Margaret and Michael a 2k run down to the Rocky garden started us off.
So much Moss to shift so make the garden safe for the older residents as it makes the ground very slippery. A wide range of tools and scraping techniques all making that beautiful scraping sound on concrete!
Scraping to the beat we also had out flower pot sorters going through 250 potted plants deciding weather they were able to be planted or had to hit the compost heap.
Powering through the moss and the plants we also swept up and tidied up the garden helping to create a huge bag of garden waste which we were able to lift and carry to the bins for the council to come and collect.
Rewarded in the best way possible with so treats gave us the power up to do the longer route back to base and a nice pace!
Big shout out to Sam on his last run with us before he moves West. Thank you for your huge efforts with the Hackney crew!! Hope you get along to a West London GG group soon.
See you next week for a trip to Hackney Parks before out social!
Smooth Running
Joel
