It was a delightful evening for a delightful run, with 35 runners in pursuit of the Portico Gallery, a community arts space in West Norwood.
We had a quick intro, welcoming 7 new people to the gang. Nice one Alice, Rachael, Anthony, Hannah, Sarah, Emily and Martha!!! Give those guys a cheer.
SOFIA, SO GOOD.
Then Lavinia told us about the fantastic time that was had this past weekend in Bulgaria. There were some incredible finish times from GG Lambeth runners and a lot of fun was had!
Tom Benson gave us the lowdown on the GoodGym Olympics and the plan for a GG Anthem. 🥁
And we congratulated Will on his sterling effort of reaching 50 GOOD DEEDS. Awesome stuff.
We then hit the road, a tidy 4.5k uphill to The Portico. Tom Hunter lead the “keen” bunch and the rest of us took a more relaxed approach!
We arrived to meet John who gave us a couple of tasks:
👉 Cleaning the walls of the arts space with a “sugar soap” mixture.
👉 folding plastic bags to save space
Everyone got stuck in with some people commenting on how scrubbing the walls was very therapeutic!
Soap pleased to clean you.
Before we knew it, time was up and we had to begin the descent home.
SOAP SOLID CREW.
Well done everyone. Next week we’re at Myatt’s Field for another therapeutic task - removing bindweed!
