A large group of Goodgymmers left market row for a casual stroll down Brixton's high street- it was way too busy to even begin to attempt a jog! At Papas park, we met Dyfed, who explained the various tasks. Papas is a community garden with a park and it is obviously well used- whilst we were there children were playing and there was a candlelit yoga class in the hall.
Three people went off to help out Olive with improvements to her garden. The rest set to work at Papas garden. After grabbing gloves and tools we cleared bikes and weeds, we chopped a tree, we trimmed bushes. But Rebecca wanted us to work up a sweat and took us out in small groups to perform some gruelling circuit training til we could do no more. A hardcore group finished off with a run before meeting back at Papas park. A truly good work out!
We were so busy that we forgot to take photos... perhaps just as well given the pained expressions during circuits. Next time we'll take twice as many.
