Firstly, a massive thank you to Katy & Calum for leading the run tonight. Due to a back injury I couldn't run so I had to drive to the task... poor effort I know!
A big welcome to two new runners to GoodGym this week - Hugo and Swarupa.
There were several races that took place at the weekend so we had a recap on all the great achievements by our GoodGymers.
Catherine was back runner this week.
Katy also led the warm-up... some thought it was brutal... you've learnt well Katy :-)
The warm up felt like a proper workout
The task was gardening for the Ormiston Families Children's Centre in Lakenham, a 2.5km each-way trip via Lakenham Way. There was me worried would everyone get to the correct place under Calum's directions but it was me who go lost going in my car and everyone arrived before me!
The main task was to dig up a 3-tier flower bed with some general weeding and tidying up to do also.
As always, the team smashed through it all quickly. I had a set of Boccia in my car so we finished with a game of that in the car park before Calum and Katy led the group back to The Forum.
Next week's task is a Game's Night with residents at Redmayne View.
