Run. Volunteer. Run.
Following our previous article on Goodgym, the Extracisers were curious to see just what Goodgym was all about!
So they gave it a go!
And they enjoyed it so much they went back again and again!
Over the last 6 weeks Extracisers Jonny, Winston, Lucy and Will have been doing good while keeping fit at Goodgym Islington's group runs.
Goodgym Islington start at the Arsenal Hub near The Emirates. They run, help with a project for the community, and then run back - all in 90 minutes!

Jonny was the first to give it a go, and on his first time he was treated to the task of moving manure as the Goodgymmers spread 80 bags of compost around Compton Square Gardens.
Despite this he was back at it the next week to hoe some weeds in Thornhill Square Gardens.

After Jonny's rave reviews, Winston and Will decided to get stuck-in!
And that they did - as they soon found themselves immersed in a huge crate of animal poo! Their first task was shovelling compost into bags for Freightliners City Farm.

After all that shovelling the work wasn't over though as the Goodgymmers had a race around The Emirates!
Along the way Winston went live! If you missed it, then check out the video below!
Winston and Jonny were back composting the next week at Sunnyside Community Gardens.
Lucy then fancied getting involved, and she joined Winston and Jonny in doing some gardening in the freezing cold at Caxton House Community Centre.

So Goodgym has got the Extracisers' approval. Be sure to let us know what you think when you give it a go!
