So last night was a Two for Tuesday PLUS we had a brand new GoodGymer PLUS another little milestone for Inny so lots of good stuff going on.

We were delighted to welcome Amy to the Lambeth community for her first task and Group Run, thanks for coming down and getting stuck in! For those keeping a track on these our category this week was if you could have any item from anywhere in the world in your house (or garden) what would it be? This week's winner had to be Katy who would bring the chocolate waterfall and river from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to her house (no Oumpa Loumpas were harmed during this discussion).

It was one of our longer runs up to Palace Road and there to meet Gerry at the Nature Gardens to help with a small task and then on to Streatham Wells Primary School to clear away their now defunct chicken run.

Frances was on her bike and Lasso meeting us at the tasks so they started off helping out Gerry shift some green waste from the street side round to the compost area at the back, it was two loads each but nice to be able to help out on our way!

The rest of the group headed 50m further up the road and discovered Maya had somehow clambered over the 20 foot fencing and made it into the school (or been let in by Stephen the maintenance person). There was an enormous amount of very heavy paving stones, chicken wire, a rabbit hutch and lots of odds and ends that needed carrying round to where the skip will arrive on Wednesday morning.

Check out the pics where you can see Good Jim was raring to go with the fob for the school, all the lifting and shifting, tools of the trade and a lovely group photo.

Runners started to peel away on the run home, thanks Lindy and Michael for keeping me company and chatting on the run as well.

See you next week!

22 runners ran 6 km to help Streatham Wells Primary School and the Friends of Kennington Park.

A huge congratulations to Michael for securing June's Shit Prize of the Month. He's been putting us all to shame on the distance board racking up an amazing 122km so far this month. And now has not one, but TWO Glastonbury 2017 programmes as reward for his exploits!

With some positively torrential rain battering it down throughout, we all made sure to bring our best primary coloured waterproof gear. With Jim in particular looking prepared for some biblical level flooding.

Team 1 headed up to Streatham Wells Primary School. Tom Hunter tells us all about it: After running up the hill with rainy training montage intensity, we were met by Richard who showed us an area of the garden that was in need of a bit of a spruce and tidy up. Careful to avoid binning all the children's lovely hand painted earth stones, we made short work of the mess and had the whole place looking good as new in no time.

Team 2 headed down to Kennington Park. Beth Hoskins gives us the lowdown: 12 of lambeth's finest Took the flat option this week and ran 2.5 K down to Kennington Park. We were helping the friends of Kennington Park give the place the once over before an inspection tomorrow. Most of us were on Team Litter and armed with litter pickers and bags we picked up all the sweet wrappers, cigarette butts and bottle tops we could find. Team Shears headed to the perimeter of the park to trim some overgrown beaches that were trying to escape out of the railings and came back with a whole shopping trolley full of clippings. Finally there was Team Secateurs who deadheaded the roses and made sure they hadn't taken too much of a battering in the heavy rain.

Then it was time to speed it home and daydream about that lovely warm cup of hot chocolate we would have when we reached shelter. A huge well done to everyone who still decided to come out to do some good in such conditions! As you can see from the photos, John G was traumatised....
