If a tree falls in the forest...
5 GoodGymers made their way 5.0km to help their local community in Waltham Forest.

Our first physical task of the warmer weather!
A deceptively difficult foray into all things tree felling (or the aftermath thereof), we braved fairytale style thorns and walking the plank in order to clear up the paths that had been blocked by tree trimmings.
Gloves on and ready for (almost) anything, we took turns hoisting branch piles above our heads and tramping single-file to the designated spot behind the shed. A few, "oofs" and "ouches" later, we realised that the thorns and jagged edges were going to require us to be a lot more vigilant.
Refusing to be beaten, we quickly made light work of the pile of plant waste and were off into the evening for some well-deserved pizza!
