For Goodness Snake
14 GoodGymers made their way 3.9km to help the Albany Theatre in Lewisham.

Another week, another chance to do some good in the borough of Lewisham. This week we were heading to The Albany to tackle the never ending supply of litter that blows in from the surrounding streets (and also gets thrown into the garden)!
It was a shorter run to The Albany where we split into groups to tackle the litter and also split into recycling and rubbish. As always we found some gems including a lime, a frisbee and a lot of beer cans!
With The Albany closing at 8pm, it wasn't long before we dropped our rubbish bags off at the bin store and gathered outside for a group photo.
On the way back, we confusingly detoured to the Waterlink Way so that we could take part in an exercise called "The Snake" - it probably does have a better name than that! The group ran slowly in a line, making sure to keep the pace steady whilst the person at the back sprinted to the front and once they arrived, shouted go for the next person to sprint and so on and so on. It's a great exercise to add in a variety of paces and the Waterlink Way gives us the perfect stretch of pavement.
Next week is a mystery task at the moment! See you there!
