Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Wandsworth runner
Clare and David just about found their way to this mission in Southwark in the beautiful evening sunshine. Greeted by Mr H and his Daughter they were given the task of lawns to cut and weeds to clear from paving.
Mowing and weeding duties were shared whilst Mr H gave a little help sweeping up some of the cuttings. Raking out lots of brick paving provided an unusual acoustic accompaniment supplemented by a specially designed steel brush.
Once all the lawn and paving were trimmed and cleared Mr H and his Daughter insisted on providing some hospitality. Masala spiced tea and coffee was a lovely reviver after the work was finished. The GoodGym ethos was explained and applauded and the runners were showered in thanks. A happy experience for all present.
