The sun was out and so were Good Gym. An amazing 8 of us turned up to help the team at Hervey Road, where Annie and Richard are working hard to build a garden behind the sports field.

We were met first by Khai who had had the presence of mind and kindness of heart to bring water for everyone, which was really helpful as it was certainly hot. Annie soon arrived and were assigned to a multitude of tasks with some of the team watering some very thirsty trees, others cutting the grass and others weeding the various beds, all the time making sure we didn't cut down or kneel on or otherwise trash any of the beautiful wild flowers growing. And what was also nice to see was that we were joined by countless bumblebees and ladybirds, showing that South East London is a wonderful hot-bed for nature.

After an hour we were all pretty much exhausted and it was time for photos before heading off to enjoy the sunshine,

Finally, I can''t finish the report without a shout out for Sarah, who had completed her 400th parkrun that morning,. This is such a brilliant achievement so well done Sarah.

Saturday morning : Guilford and Godalming were invaded by some very unusal species in the area...not the Foxes but runners. Loads of them to come and test their trail endurance. Godalming started first with the ultra runners like Simon and Steph Ducat : tackle the hills on a 62km race. Then the all mighty Michael did his bit with the marathon distance. The 3 goodgymers tackled the hills, muddy routes, tight areas invaded by brambles and other know plants they normally have to deal with on their community missions. They dodge cars as open road race and some areas they play the 80's arcade game "The Frogger" with the help of the brilliant marshals. The end was also very tricky as damp, slippery logs and attacking bushes. All made it safe and sound to the finish line to enjoy their medal but also the food like pizzas and burgers. Well done Goodgymers!!
