Cold spitting rain and an early Saturday start wasn't enough to scare off 8 lively goodgymers. The Holy trinity and or triple decker indulgence of parkrun, a task and breakfast was just too good to miss!

Some lovely hard efforts at Hackney Marshes Parkrun. Including another massive PB for Tim, a terrific 3min PB for Ruth, a low 18mins for Dan the Man, a sub 30 for Alice, a 22 on the nose for big Dave, and a tidy 28mins for Beth and also Alice. They both joined for their first GoodGym Newham run, Alice's first GoodGym deed too! Pleasure to have you along. Jumped straight in a the deep end, with a 5k race warm up before the task!

We jogged an easy kilometer over to the task. Had a quick chat with the lovely Ange, she runs the kid's playground. Then got to clearing a large overgrown section for a wildflower meadow. Digging, raking, pulling, shearing, cutting... a solid 40mins later and a beautiful clear patch had been exposed. Reckon it might need a touch more work, when we head there this week, but an excellent start.

To reward our obedient muscles we made our way to The Breakfast Club, finishing our morning efforts with some superb recovery grub.

Thanks for all your efforts, was great to have two (one complete) newbie along!

See you all on Wednesday for a return trip to the Playground, sign up here here
