The Hundred
Sunday 3rd August
Written by Sooz
Four fantastic GoodGymmers helped 23 youngsters complete their junior parkrun this morning!
A warm welcome back to Marek, alongside seasoned regulars Nick, Rue and Sooz.
Rue and Marek took on the dream team timekeeper and finish tokens, while Nick handled his usual turning point position with finesse and Sooz stepped up to tailwalker.
There were two incredible milestones today: 100 Parkruns for Julia and Edith!
All packed up by 9:30 and our Sundays were off to a wholesome start.
A brilliant GoodGym team as always. Join us next week?

Two Hoses are Better Than One
Wednesday 30th July

Another week, and another tree watering innovation - the two way hose splitter, allowing two hoses to be attached to the tap at the same time and fill up the water canisters double quick!
Today's priority was watering the slightly older young trees (planted 4 years ago). Although more established, these are showing signs of dehydradtion and struggle against the warm weather.
Next, the team focussed on the very young saplings planted last winter in the more sheltered areas. Although these young trees are more sheltered from the sun, they are also more sheltered from the rain and suffering more than some trees in other parts of the common.
It was lovely to have Nuredin join the team for his first ever GoodGym task.
We'll be back next week for another round of drinks for the trees.

Administering first Traid!
Monday 28th July
Written by Rob Hallett
On a summer’s Monday evening, seven GoodGymers headed to Traid in Dalston to assist with preparation for their summer sale.
Splitting up across shop floor and stock, the team tackled cages of donations by hanging them up on rails to be sorted while the upstairs crew neatly reorganised garments into colour order.
We had a great time helping Traid out and catching up with each other. A special welcome to newcomers John and a welcome back to Richard after a number of years!
We’ll be back at Traid over the coming weeks so keep your eyes peeled for more.
