Five for tree do run

Haringey Report written by Dave Mansfield

Five runners ran 1.5 km to help hydrate the orchard at Chapman's Green.

We avoided the main road, and took some side streets, that despite having run round there plenty of times before, got Dave a little turned around. Still we made it in plenty of time!

Last time we shocked the park volunteers by how much we were able to do in. But this week, with our illustrious leader laid low, and a couple of members off chasing the moon round Battersea Park, there were less of us. Spoilers, we still managed to get a shocking amount done! Beth and Ellie made it for the third week in a row, so Dave unilaterally declared them to be regulars now The trees there have had a rough summer, and despite the recent grey weather, there's not been much rain. So the little water they get, gets guzzled up by the grass. Our ongoing mission, is to dig up the turf around the base of these trees, to allow the water to soak down to their roots. This turns out to be quite the arm work out, and by 7:50 we were starting to flag, and moved on to an apple tree at the back of the meadow. But tough times can be good for fruit and volunteers. The apples were super concentrated and sweet, and we powered through the turf in record time!

There was chat about upcoming races, but no-one can beat Chis Hadfield's 28,800 kilometers per hour (aboard the ISS).

Good luck at your Half Neil!

See you next week

Gatecrashers

Haringey Report written by Euclides Montes

10 Goodgymmers crashed into the gates at Russell Park for an evening of painting and bonhomie. Highlights of the evening included Gramps absolutely stacking it on the run to task and injuring himself in a few places, and our Sarah's unwitting invitation for a spot of heavy caressing. You had to be there!

Normal service will resume this week at Chapmans Green - come!

A Root Awakening

Haringey Report written by Euclides Montes

12 incredibly haaawwwwt Goodgymmers donned head torches and smiles as they lent a hand at Chapmans Green

Kudos Corner

Everybody make some noise for Beth, Ellie, and Gina who joined us for their first ever Goodgym task and were absolute naturals. They didn't skip a beat and got stuck right in into the evening shenanigans. Rock stars! You can all come again....

... which is exactly what Super James did tonight, returning for his second task ever in row, despite the GGH motley crew's best attempts to scare him away the previous week. Hero!

We also welcomed Mehmet for his first run with us. As the legend that he is, he fitted right in.

Shovel-ready

Our audacious and bodacious crew turned up at Chapmans Green as the last of the day's light was slipping through their fingers but they didn't let that deter them. Oh no! The Friends of Chapmans Green awaited them with a mission to dig out the tree wells in the orchard so the lovely trees can get a good feed ahead of the cold days of winter. With a clear mission in front of them, our Goodgymmers began working like hank marvin honey badgers.

Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Task. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster. Monster.* #NoContext

The Friends group had conservatively put red rings around 4 of the 13 trees in the community orchard and you can see why - the ground was hard, harder than explaining to your friendly Area Activator how to use TikTok without crying in frustration. Nevertheless, our heroes cracked on with gusto and not too much complaining, and we ended up finishing the evening having prepped not four but six trees, ready for a good protein milkshake drink or whatever it is thhat they're getting ahead of the winter months.

The Friends were so impressed that they asked us to come back in a couple of weeks and who are we to say no to such lovely folk, eh?

A good successful night, if I say so myself.

Join us on Weds as we visit Russell Park in Wood Green for a spot of park gate painting.

*You had to be there for that one to make sense. Sorry!
