A few new faces this week. Welcome back to Kirsty, who's getting back into running. Big cheers to Gabriella, visiting from Camden, and Toyin visiting from Hackney. And huge cheers to Nurjehan for her first GoodGym run.

Our planned task was rescheduled, but the new task was quite a bit closer, so we took the scenic route there. If you can call the A10 scenic. As a reward for their hard work, the faster runners (and the 2 cyclists) got to do extra wall sits, planks, and squats on the journey too.

Once we arrived at Grow Tottenham, we had a variety of tasks waiting for us.

  • Rearranging old speaker boxes to define an outdoor courtyard
  • Repurposing old shipping crates as planters by raising on pallets, and filling with compost.
  • Recycling old wood, by separating the scrap out, and moving the good stuff across the yard.

With that accomplished, we learned a bit more about Grow Tottenham (formally Grow Elephants) mission, and headed off to the part. There we focused on our Glutes, and thanks to Terianne for remembering last week's homework, tried to stand up without using our hands or knees!

Then back to base for those all important stretches.
