Report written by Anastasia Hancock (she/her)
We had a last minute change of task last night, but that didn't stop us throwing ourselves into the jobs at Bramford community garden last night - well done everybody!
We started off by cheering Paul's 10km race at the weekend and then moved on to our warm up, where we worked on our hip extensions just like the pros at the World Champs last week!
Before we set off we went round the group to see who were morning larks or night owls. It turns out we are a healthy mix of both, but one thing we could all agree on was that it was time to head down to our task for the evening.
Weaving round the busy streets of Clapham we got down to Bramford gardens where Sha, the lead volunteer who keeps the space flourishing, was waiting with instructions.
While Kamil and Chris set up straight away to remove a stray chair and start collecting all the litter strewn in the area known as the circle, the rest of the team got busy removing all the mallow from the raised beds. With the hot weather and the rain, this particular plant had gone crazy, threatening to take over the space.
It was Felix and Jo who perfected the root removal system, but everybody worked hard getting as much out as possible and the beds were soon looking much clearer.
We used the run home to knock out several glute based stations, before finishing with stretches. Great session everyone! Next week we're back to the GG garden for our rescheduled task, so sign up here for another evening of fun and fitness!
