Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
GG Brent really (James)Bond-ed together in the laundry room this week!!
On one of the coldest of the year so far, there was a meet a greet and a hot feet out the door! Feeling like a special agents task force, GG Brent wasted no time heading off to the task this week: Ashford Place homeless shelter in Cricklewood, where the awesome Danny awaited with Odd-Jobs a plenty.
Like a bullet flying through the night Skyfall the team sped along together in formation, ducking and weaving past overhanging trees and leaping over cracked pavements.
The 1.6 mile route was achieved in 15mins flat..... We are getting faster me thinks!! We hurried through the corridors of the centre to reach the centre point - The laundry room!!!!! Da da daaaaaa
As Laura and Hannah cracked on with washing the walls (in prep for next weeks GG paint job) the rest of the team hit the - Temple of Doom.......(oh wait no that's Indiana Jones)
The mess was indescribable and the mountains of donated clobber were strewed all over the place and quite reminiscent of one or two of the teams university halls. Unperturbed the team got stuck straight in, folding, piling, sweeping, clearing, stacking.
To a soundtrack of girl rock.....Sorry Dan, the shapes being thrown would not have gone a miss on the floors of strictly. When we yelled Shake your ass to Beyonce, Sadhana thought we said pants, as she held up the most outworn "vintage" pair of corduroy Y Fronts known to man..........Sexy.
Before we knew it, Ellie's Goldeneye had spyed the time and we were out of it. As quick as we'd arrived we were out the door.
The pace was quick on the journey back and in formation once more we tackled the hill climb and sprinted back to base in a time of 15mins once more!!! Props to Holly for doing soooooo well, first session and she smashed it; I Ex-Spectre she's done this running thing before.
Until next week, won't you join us.... to Try another day
DO GOOD. FEEL GOOD. INSPIRE.
