25 Amazing GoodGyming GoodGymers ran an amazing 8k to Clissold Park to shovel, shift and rake our way to path creating glory! Then celebrated Amanda’s 50th GoodDeed with pizza and an amazing cake & cookies!
Our longest run in years!!! Great to get some serious distance under our feet this evening with an adventure up to the Corner of the borough as we helped Hackney Parks lay some wood chip pathway around the perimeter of the park to allow year around usage even in the wettest of weathers!
With time of the essence we got away fast from the Bakehouse and made steady running progress up to Stoke Newington to meet at Clissold park. With 4k under our belts we got straight to work gathering tools and shifting the mulch from the big pile to barrows and onto the in much need very muddy pathway! The production line was swift and the efficiency super high! With less time to play with than normal due to our longer running we did an amazing job of getting so much done and creating with so Side ways thinking chip raking strategy over 100 metres of pathway!!
With an awesome effort on the wood chips we zipped back to base to celebrate Amanda’s 50th GoodDeed in typical Hackney GG style with Pizza and the most amazing cake and personalised cookies maybe ever!!
Great night, see you next week for a visit to Dalston!!
