With the clocks having changed and the days finally stretching out, this week's GoodGym Newham run to Care4Calais felt a little different – for once, we could actually see where we were going and more or less what we were doing when we got there! That said, the air still had a chilly bite to it, making sure we didn’t get too comfortable on the run over.

Meeting at the PrintHouse, Graham, Martin, Nick, Rosa, and I laced up and set off at a steady pace, making our way across Stratford to Care4Calais. Shoutout to Nick on his 599th good deed – a true 'Kevin Prince' milestone! Meanwhile, Kev and Shaz ran from theirs to met us there, ready to get stuck in with another evening of shoe pairing and general clothes sorting.

Upon arrival, we jumped straight into action and had a great session of sorting, chatting, and occasional moments of shoe-related detective work.

Looking forward to the next one already! See you all next week - we're off to the Hackney Marshes Adventure Playground where Ange will no doubt have a solid task lined up for us.

Thank you to Graham for stepping in to lead the run from Print House to Cody Dock for me,knew running wasn't going to happen for me due to a migraine.

We welcomed back Martin for a return visit to Newham and it was also great to see Paige back.

Julia one of the awesome team met us at Cody Dock and let us know what we can look forward to at the Spring Forward event,also go to look inside at the new visitors centre....opening is imminent.

We headed down to Star Lane and split into 3 groups to cover as many roads as possible to post our leaflets to let as many residents as possible know about the upcoming event.

Well done to Rosa,Hilary,Eugene and Graham managing to run to,from and during tonights session after the awesome effort of your trail half marathon in Wales....wow those hills(see photo of elevation they ran)
