This task was a good one for beginners A warm welcome to Jessy, and Ellie our new Goodgymers!

The garland of joy went to Lorenzo – of course! With 10 good deeds he can join Task Force!

Larkrise school needed a hand
With some tasks that they had planned.
One group had to smash up a fence
For a bonfire, which was intense!
A second group helped plant some trees
In record time, and with utmost ease.
The third group helped out inside
And easily took it in their stride.
Recycling old books and shelves
Was no sweat for Goodgymers like ourselves.

Next, instead of heading back,
We went down to the Bannister track.
We did some speed work for a while
To see if we could match Roger’s mile.*
Lastly we headed back to base;
Thanks everyone, this task was ace!

Roger Bannister was the first athlete to run a mile in under 4 minutes, which he did at the Iffley Road track. * Julia's Granny once dated Roger!! (her Grandpa hated him!) ;) <3
