Six GoodGymmers braved the wild West London weather to make their way to Hammersmith TRAID. The task is an old favourite - helping the charity shop with their restock.

The jobs for the night were:

  • Emptying hangers

  • Putting the piles of clothes from said hangers into boxes to be taken away

  • Bagging up the hangers from said clothes said hangers that were emptied

  • Pairing up shoes, and bagging them up to be taken away.

Always a good task (an indoor task in the rain? Yes please!) our soggy selves got straight to it. Harvey had fun finding seasonal apparel, with a halloween top and a festive tee. Cookie completed his task in a fetching bowler hat (which sadly he couldn’t take home with him). Analiese did a cracking job before she had to leave to go and run in the dark and the rain (crazy lady), and Kash worked efficiently unclipping clothes from hangers and throwing them into the correct bags and boxes.

On the other side of the shop, Big Little Beth and I had scouted out our favourite task… it was Shoe Time, Baby! The age old favourite of the classic game pairs, we searched boxes and shelves to find the matching shoes. Some were more obvious (bright pink boots) and others not so obvious (who knew there were so many similar snakeskin ankle boots in one store).

In 45 minutes we had the shop floor emptied, and five were off to the next task… going outside and running in the rain with intention; this time to get to Shepherd’s Bush TRAID… Analiese, maybe you’re not the only crazy one!

PS. Analiese smashed her Run The Dark 10k in the best way - well done girl!
