A Blooming Lovely Evening with Lambeth GG Crew !!

Lambeth Report written by Yianny (he / him)

🏃‍♀️🌱 This week our lovely bunch of fitness fanatics and gardening gladiators headed to Landor Road Allotments to lend Valcie a helping hand - and boy, did we dig right in! 🏃‍♂️💨

The Tasks That Made Us Grow 🌿

Our green-fingered gang tackled:

  • Weeding - We really got to the root of the problem! 🌾
  • Chopping - Nothing like a good chop to get the heart pumping! ✂️
  • Watering - Keeping things flowing smoothly 💧
  • Edging - We were really on the edge of our … beds! 🌸
  • Litter picking - Because we’re absolutely rubbish at leaving a mess behind! 🗑️

The team worked so hard, you could say we were absolutely plant-astic! 🌻

The Berry Best Part - Late Summer Social! 🥳

But wait, there’s more! The real magic happened when the sun went down and the party vibes came up! Our late summer social was absolutely mint to be! 🌿✨

Everyone brought something delicious to share (because good food + good people = thyme well spent! ⏰🌿). We spread out under the stars for an evening picnic that was simply un-beet-able! 🥗🎵

The 90s playlist had everyone feeling nostalgic - from Blue Dabadee to Gangsters Paradise, we were grow-ving to the beat all night long! 🎶 And yes, there may have been some questionable karaoke performances under the lamplight that had us all in stitches (the good kind, not the running kind!) 🎤💡

The Verdict 🏆

A lovely time was had by all, and we proved once again that the best way to turnip the fun is by mixing fitness, community service, and good friends!

Until next week, keep on running and keep on growing! 🏃‍♀️🌱💚

The Root of All Good: Papa's Park Edition !!

Lambeth Report written by Yianny (he / him)

🏃‍♀️🌱

Well, well, well... what do you know? Our usual standing task decided to leaf us hanging this week! 🍃 But did we let that weed us out? Absolutely not! Instead, we rose to the occasion and headed to Papa's Park for some proper gardening action.

The Route That Took Root

Our fabulous crew laced up for a scenic 2km loop to Clapham and back - because nothing says "warm-up" like a gentle jog before you get down and dirty with some serious weeding!

Operation Dandelion Destruction

Once we arrived at Papa's Park, we split into two crack teams of vegetation vigilantes:

Team Planter Power took on the inside job - pulling weeds and taming the escaped greenery around the planters. These green-fingered heroes really knew how to turnip the heat! 🌿

Team Perimeter Patrol tackled the wild frontier along the outside edge, hacking away at the rebellious weeds that had clearly been growing a bit too big for their boots. Talk about mint to be! 🌱

Special Shout-Out Corner

We're absolutely Dan-de-lighted to have Dan back with us tonight! 🦸‍♂️ Fresh from his Superman audition for the new movie (seriously, Dan, please don't do your own stunts - we need you in one piece for future weeding missions!). His return really helped us turnip the energy levels!

The Dirt on Tonight

Another classic GoodGym session in the books! We came, we saw, we weeded - and Papa's Park is looking fresh thanks to our green-thumbed heroes.

Until next week, keep growing that GoodGym spirit!

Remember: We're not just running from our problems - we're running TO make a difference! 💪🌟

Leaf It to Us: Another Mulch-Successful Mission!!

Lambeth Report written by Yianny (he / him)

🏃‍♀️ What a BRAMBLE-iant evening we had at Thorlands Gardens! Our superhero Run Leader Tilly swooped in to save the day and lead our merry band of do-gooders on another epic mission. With great power comes great responsibility... and apparently great gardening skills! 🦸‍♀️

We tackled a classic Simon special that really got us digging deep (literally!). Half our crew went absolutely WILD chopping back those unruly brambles in the chamomile garden - talk about getting straight to the POINT! Meanwhile, our leaf-mould ferry service was running at full capacity, transporting precious cargo from the clubhouse pile to join forces with the wood chip mountain. 🌿

It was wheelie good teamwork! 🚐

Tonight's harvest of heroes deserves a special shout-out - we welcomed TWO fantastic newbies to the GoodGym family! Ashleigh and Daniel jumped straight into the action and proved they're absolute GEMS. With fresh faces and fresh energy, we managed to get a MULCH-titude of work done in record time!

The garden is now looking absolutely mint (well, chamomile actually), and we're feeling pretty chuffed with our evening's work. Another successful mission in the books - we came, we ran, we conquered those brambles!

Until next week, keep running wild! 🌱

When GoodGym Goes Bad….!!

Lambeth Report written by Yianny (he / him)

The Great Stockwell Shuffle 📦🏃‍♀️ to find out why we went bad this week check out the Lambeth Insta page!

Date: This Week
Destination: Stockwell Park Community Centre
Mission: Operation Lift ‘n’ Shift Supreme

The Brief

Our magnificent seven (plus a few extras) laced up their trainers and jogged over to meet Nick & Julie at Stockwell Park Community Centre. Little did we know we were about to embark on the ultimate game of “Will It Fit?” - Community Centre Edition!

The Challenge

What started as a simple “moving some donated items” quickly escalated into an episode of “Extreme Decluttering: Volunteers At Large.” Our task? Wrestling with a mountain of miscellaneous mayhem that would make Marie Kondo weep.

The Inventory of Incredulity:

  • Fridges (because apparently keeping things cool is so last season)
  • Dishwasher (now officially on permanent vacation from dish duty)
  • Boxes of books (heavy on knowledge, heavier on our backs)
  • Kids’ toys (proving that fun really does weigh a ton)
  • Pasta presses (for when you need your carbs really flat)
  • Broken keyboards (no longer making beautiful music together)
  • TVs (giving us the silent treatment)
  • Picture frames (framing us for excessive lifting)
  • Scrap plastic (the stuff that dreams are made of… apparently)
  • Bean bags (surprisingly un-bean-like in their cooperation)
  • And much, much more! (insert dramatic echo here)

The Plot Twist

Just when we thought we’d mastered the art of community centre Jenga, Nick and Julie threw us a curveball: “Oh, and could you possibly carry these two enormous wardrobes to a flat down the road?”

Cue nervous laughter and the collective sound of volunteers mentally calculating their life insurance policies.

Mission: Impossible - Wardrobe Protocol

Armed with nothing but determination and questionable spatial awareness, our heroes Michael, Katie, Jenny, Adam, Paul, Eric, and Jo transformed into human furniture movers extraordinaire.

The real challenge wasn’t the carrying (though our shoulders would like a word) - it was the ultimate test of Tetris skills as we attempted to navigate two massive wardrobes through a front door that clearly wasn’t designed with “wardrobe delivery” in mind.

After much rotating, tilting, and what can only be described as “furniture yoga,” we achieved the impossible. The wardrobes are now happily settled in their new home, probably gossiping about their epic journey.

The Heroes of the Hour

Let’s give a massive round of applause to our absolutely wardrobe-ous crew:

  • Michael - Master of the pivot maneuver
  • Katie - Queen of “maybe if we turn it this way…”
  • Jenny - Chief morale officer and corner-spotter
  • Adam - The human measuring tape
  • Paul - Keeper of everyone’s sanity
  • Eric - Professional furniture whisperer
  • Jo - The voice of reason when reason was in short supply

The Verdict

Another successful mission in the books! We lifted, we shifted, we conquered. Our community is a little tidier, one family has some new wardrobes, and we all got an absolutely moving workout.

Until next week, keep running and keep giving!

P.S. - If anyone knows where we can get a degree in Applied Wardrobe Physics, asking for several friends…
