Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Yesterday I was tired and I didn't have a great amount of energy. Yesterday was my Everest. Then I turned up to GoodGym and all sorts of wondrous things happened that turned the whole day around.
39 people showed up. Mega effort. That’s only one less than 40 you know.
There were brand new runners to GoodGym; Josiah, David and Emma…. Make sure you’re all extra lovely to them all next week. They are lovely people. I’d like to keep them.
It rained. We all got a bit wet. But that was cool.
Judy got covered in paint and there was cake thanks to super baker Beth to celebrate my first anniversary at GoodGym Lambeth… hooray.
Here are the reports from what you all got up to. The challenge was four lines, eight words per line, preferably rhyming… here’s what we’ve got.
Brockwell Park Greenhouses By George
At Brockwell's greenhouses we met Tom, who meant For us to shovel compost until we're spent Spreading, tossing and raking Until arms were aching And rewarded with fresh veg, what a gent!
Loughborough Junction by Jitendra
Gardening at Loughborough Junction farm's on the menu.
So a group of us went, almost flew.
They grow black tomatoes and loads there y'know?
Now in place of beans, chard will grow!
Papa’s Park by Alex
In need to some speed work, I was put through my paces doing 5 x 1 mile reps in between sanding the Papa's Park Railings. Although they didn't get easier, by the 3rd the route was known and could start to get an idea on a consistent pace. By the 5th rep the smokers out side The Duke had got used to my screw face. Loosing 21 seconds between the first and last rep, I was gifted delicious cake. Cake more than suitable to celebrate a year of Rebecca at GG!
