This week we welcomed newbie Stefano on his first session with GoodGym 👋 before leading the way off to the Bushmead Community Hub where we were asked to prepare the front garden area for nature-friendly planting by the Wildlife Trust.
An area previously occupied by a large bush has been cleared and woodchipped but we had to relocate the woodchip around the existing planting and turn the exposed ground over ready for some easy planting by other volunteers later this week.
We had a great bunch of GoodGymers chatting merrily while working hard at getting this task done in good time. Enjoying the benefit of daylight for the first time on a group run this year we did a great job.
All that remained was a run back into town, with a quick stop in the park for a round of exercises from the fitness dice 🎲 🎲.
The rolls of the dice gave us the following:
90s of push-ups 90s of crunches 30s of squats and another 30s of push-ups to finish off the session.
Stefano you did great and it was a pleasure having you join us!

Girum has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Girum is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

It was a return to the Penrose Roots to Recovery garden this evening for part two of a big sleeper cutting task.
There's lots of new raised beds planned for this year's crops but before they can be built we needed to cut a bunch to size.
We completed the sawing job and moved some sleepers down to the far end of the garden in super quick time so we ran on to the Wardown Park Bandstand for a leg-based workout circuit.
