Ali and I added a few extra slabs to the paths (actually off the path for a new seating area!) and Rich was working on clearing an area round the back of the church. Nice weather for it too!

Today was our fourth GoodGym outing to Horn Park and our third barrowing woodchip to make a less muddy path around the perimeter of the park.
We had a great team, including Louise from GG Bromley, Chloe and Calvin from GG Greenwich and now regular Horn Park visitors Rich and Ali.
It was a bit of a trek getting the woodchip around the path but the pile of chips to deliver quickly disappeared.
Top work, team!

I spent an hour transferring and chopping garden debris from one compost bin to the next and took the very woody material up to the ‘fedge’. After the couch to 5k run. Happy to have helped a little.

The group Couch to 5k went well. We started week 6 ( already ) and are starting to see small signs of stamina building up.Two went together, sadly I arrived too late, so run doggedly by myself, arriving at Horn Park a little later than advertised 😀
HOWEVER.....what a session ! 4 Goodgymers, 2 members of the public ,plus the regular Friends of Horn Park made a mega WoodChip Shovelling/Laying Team. The original woodchip pile, the teamwork, and the extra support was truly a thing of beauty. The "before "and " afters " don't show the pace that was worked. GoodGymers having done the Couch to 5k run just before, didn't shirk from buckling down with fully laden barrows , shuttling back and forth laying woodchip along a path which was seriously muddy and a potential slip hazard.
How great is it that 2 members of the public, one a regular dog walker ( the dog, a golden retreiver, was a sweetheart), in the park, another returning from a local Park Run, who, upon learning of the task at hand literally piled in and helped . The pace of work was super quick, thus the task was finished in record time.
Superb bonhomie throughout. Human beings really can be a force for good, - especially when they see others having a go.It's nice to see Friends of Horn Park look especially gratified after our departure. A job well done, as always. We love Good Gym 🏋️♂️
