GoodGym Lambeth Run Report: Flyering in the Drizzle 🌧️

Mission: Spread the GoodGym love (and flyers) across Lambeth Weather: Grizzly drizzly (aka British summer preview) Mood: Absolutely soaking in good vibes ✨

Fresh off crushing our January Challenge targets 💪🏼🍾, we decided to ride that wave of positive energy straight into… well, an actual wave of rain. Because nothing says “let’s go outside” quite like horizontal drizzle, right? 😅

But did the weather dampen our spirits? Mist- ifyingly not! (Sorry, had to get that one out of my system 🎺)

Our superhero squad of Marie (Poppins - practically perfect in every way ☂️), Noelle, and Katie braved the elements to leaf-let the good people of Lambeth know about their local community fitness miracle workers.

We may have been getting soggy, but our enthusiasm was waterproof! 💧 Sure, the rain didn’t exactly flyer us up with motivation at first, but there’s something special about delivering these little paper ambassadors to our neighbours. Every letterbox is a potential new runner, every flyer a future friend getting fit while doing good ❤️

Mission status: Smashed it (just like our hair, which was thoroughly -smashed by the rain) Pun count: Too many to count

Community spirit: 11/10 would drizzle again 🌈

Keep being legendary, team! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

GoodGym Lambeth Run Report: Chip Happens! 🏃‍♀️🌳 What a woody wonderful evening at Agnes Riley Gardens! Our magnificent crew showed up ready to get down and dirty (literally) with the Friends of the Park, and boy did we mulch things happen! 💪🏼

The Dream Team Our usual legends Jo, Fi, Tilly, and Ben were firing on all cylinders, and we were absolutely thrilled to welcome back the long-lost Marie-Noelle! We’d really pined for her return! 🌲

The Mission Armed with shovels, wheelbarrows, and questionable dance moves, we tackled two timber-rific tasks: ∙ Shifting mountains of wood chip onto the mud kitchen (because every tiny chef deserves a splinter-free workspace 👨‍🍳) ∙ Levelling ground for a new bench (future bottoms will thank us!) The Work There was shovelling. There was barrowing. There was laying. There was soil-turning. Basically, we were one wheelbarrow away from starting our own landscaping empire. You could say we really barked up the right tree with this one! 🎯

The Grand Finale What’s a GoodGym session without totally embarrassing ourselves? We wrapped up with a spontaneous Cha Cha Slide on our freshly laid wood chip dance floor. Slide to the left? ✅ Criss cross? ✅ Charlie Brown? Absolutely! 💃🕺

Same time next week, legends? 🍾✨​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

**When Life Gives You Manure, Make… Well, Compost! 💩➡️🌱

What a night at Brixton Waterworks allotments! We had a plot twist (see what we did there? 🌿) with a late session change, but that just meant we got to meet the absolute legend that is Jane - who at just shy of 90 is still out there gardening when the sun goes down. Talk about growing old gracefully! 🌙👵💪

**The Leadership Shovelshuffle

With AA Yianny stuck crawling down the motorway (probably behind someone doing 20mph in a Fiat Panda), our superhero Fi stepped up to lead the troops. She really rose to the occasion - unlike Yianny’s speedometer! 🦸‍♀️🚗💨

**Getting Down and Dirty

The crew got stuck in with: ∙ 💪 Shovelling manure (proof that we’re not afraid of a crappy situation!) ∙ 🚜 Barrowing it about (wheely hard work!) ∙ 🍎 Apple picking for those nursing dodgy backs (the core of our operation) ∙ 🪓 Clearing Jane’s plot of chopped trees (we really branched out!)

**The Results

By the end, we’d shifted an enormous amount of green waste 🌲🌲🌲 - enough to make even the compost heap jealous!

Big thanks to Annick and Jane for having us. We had a growing good time! 🌱😄

Remember: We came, we sawed, we mulched! 🎉​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
