Rain, rain, go away...

The heavens opening was no match for the sturdy team of ten who came together to shift sand in a real Monday workout-and-a-half this evening.

After meeting outside Chiringuito, we enjoyed a leisurely run up through Approach Road, through the park, where we met a few of our fellow GoodGymers with Task Owner, rangers Mark and Darren. It was particularly lovely to be joined by first time GoodGymer Ailbhe, who got stuck straight in right from the off (hope we'll see you soon!).

Well prepped

Wheelbarrows and rakes were neatly lined up and we were briefed as to the sand destination: the objective of our mission was to replace depleted sand around all hazardous areas of the V&A playground, leaving no rock or sharp edge un-turned.

The team wheeled, and filled, emptied and raked: it was quite the 45-minute cardio-and-conditioning challenge.

And then it was 7:50 and it time to down tools, say cheerio and...head to the pub, where, after some amazing teamwork, we have Jacqui to thank for this evening's pun.

Well. Done. You.

Great work, Team Monday: you got a lot done on an evening it would have been easy to take off.
