14 Hackney GoodGymers ran 5k to St Johns Church yard to hoe away 25 sacks of weeds from the church yard to allow so spring time planting to take place!

Great to have our GG first timers along for some fun on the run!

With a very close by task we took a slightly meandering 2k route to meet Hackney Parks main man Bruce! Bruce is always prepared and great to have such great kit for the tank!!

With a range of Continental garden hoes to choose from we got pushing and scraping away all the weeds and roots from the flower beds as well as many hundreds of cigarette butts, bottle tops and and a couple of penny’s.

Working in the beautiful sunset with the rain holding off we cleared the huge flower bed in 40 highly productive minutes!

With just enough time for a choice of routes back to base we went old school wit a speedy and Sexy group with either a 2k route or a pacey 3.5k loop!

Great to have you all along and hope to see you all again next week for our trip to Hackney Wick Riverside Community Garden!!

Have a great week
