Dashing through the mud
3 GoodGymers made their way to help the Greenwich & Bexley Community Hospice in Greenwich.

Three runners turned up early on Sunday morning to help out with the Santa Dash fun run in aid of Greenwich and Bexley community hospice, in Bexleyheath's lovely, if muddy, Danson Park. Various tasks needed to be done, including unloading equipment; putting up gazebos and a large inflatable Santa-shaped finish arch; and tying things down to stop them getting blown away. At one point it was realised that the army cadets acting as marshals had forgotten their high-vis vests and the good gymmers got to walk the course to get the vests out, this being completed just in time to see the first batch of Santas dashing off into the distance. The morning finished with cheering of the two groups of Santas as they came through the finish and a little bit of helping with the clear up.
