Abbey Garden was in the GoodGym cross-hare yesterday, yes we had very low numbers, made up for by the return of Rosie. It's been a few years, we hope to provide the scheduled weekly workout that you seek, plus more. Excellent to have you back.
"Who's the last person you'd want to be on one of those silly submersibles with?" The billionaires in it. Boris. Donald. Nigel. Katie Hopkins. Think that covers most bases, feel free to send any other people to my email as your week progresses.
We found Sarah loosening the soil for us at the gardens. A full on weeding session for us this week, after tearing through one bed we made our way to the next, diligently working away for the remainder. Not empty of energy just yet, an interval of 5 x 20s runs brought us back down the Greenway, although it took longer to explain than to run, a great hustle by all.
Next week we go longer, The Up Garden needs, sign up here to help moths and butterflies.
Till next week

Another Wednesday in the heatwave. We welcomed three new faces to the crew, Chloe, Russel and Nacho. The muscular crossfit trio were a fine addition to our arsenal, physically and vibe wise. We discussed "if you could either fly or be invisible, which one would you pick?" Almost a unanimous decision on flying, nip back to NZ, go travelling etc. Some token invisibility answers in there too, but it would be a power hard not to abuse. In hindsight it's interesting to hear that no one would fight crime or save the world "I could shave 20mins getting to work" is more the response! Here's the light-hearted podcast I listened to on it.
Team bolstered by three at Nomadic Gardens, we couldn't find Jimmy but Sharon (not ours for once), came to the rescue. She instructed us to move about forty tires... clearly after seeing the crossfitters. Then lay some mulch down and get some plants in the ground. Considering we only started at 730pm after waiting around I think that's a very respectable half hour of volunteering. Top work one and all.
A chosen few executed a 'sandwhich session' on the way back, a mixture of grumbles and excitement preceded the interval, but when the whistle went you lot flew. I like these sessions as they hold you accountable, in order to nail that last rep you need to exercise pace management early on. Everyone smashed it, showcasing a well executed speed interval for east London onlookers.
Next week Abbey Gardens need our help, sign up here to help this gem of community garden.

Buffeted by brisk winds a quartet ran northwards to The Up Garden, discussing our least favourite invention. I had potentially too much time to consider, starting off with the plough, the instigator of the developed world? But quickly reverted to a back-up, the gun. Hils went for cars, Ruth doesn't want 4g on her phone and Jack prefers to not be notified that his headphone volume is too high. We're all basically luddites, good stuff.
The Princes and Sarah had obviously beaten us there, they had already banked some miles and were beavering away on the mural. We joined in, weeding below the mural wall and painting the bottom bricks. The final few touches before it's finished. We discussed Coronation stuff...and Night of The 10k's, this is the mad running festival on hampstead heath, organised by my bro, it's now one of the fastest races on the planet, it's free and it's very much worth coming along to (volunteering or not). See here or sign up here for volunteering.
Next week we dash over Get Out, fresh from our last potato planting session, Kieran is super keen for our help. sign up here
Till then,

Had the pleasure of meeting new Kiwi addition yesterday, Becky. We discussed "what technology perplexes you the most?". This elicited the second time in 7 days an Air Fryer has been the answer to an RWQ. The new super telescope, The James Webb Space Telescope, as it's known, perhaps more impressive than an air fryer, depends on who's cooking I guess. Office formatting causing confusing woes for Hils, whilst I can't wrap my head around how a camera captures a moment in time, I get it, but I don't, you know?
We nipped past The Hammer's fans, swerving low under the bridge as they swaggered above, meeting the other four at Nomadic Gardens. A brief panic due to locked doors was remedied by a foot up over the fencing and an "alright mate", Oscar responded promptly to the floating head - and we were in.
A woodchip wonderland ahead of us, but it doesn't spread itself now does it. Our octet shovelled and spread the new smoky wood towards the area leading up to the saunas, discussing gentrified sarnie prices, european mountain ranges, marathon ballots, cryotherapy and much more. Might I add, a very satisfying task, I'm a big fan of simple tasks that need team-work and grunt, that's exactly what yesterday was.
Next week we head to The Up Garden, sign up here for some midweek action.
Have a glorious week, in spite of that befuddling tech.
Till then,
