On a pleasant sunny Sunday morning, 8 GoodGymers, plus families, helped to cheer on, encourage and keep safe 98 young runners as they completed two laps of Old Heath Rec. It was lovely to meet Damon (with my sincere apologies for doubting your existence) and Alice for the first time.
It was great to then have time to catch up while sitting in the sun / running after young children.
Look at for another opportunity to marshal the Junior Park Run again soon as they are always very grateful for our support.

On a light and sunny April evening we were joined by an ever growing team of Goodgymmers to tackle some local litter. We were joined this week by new members Ray and Madeleine - who quickly got up to speed by collecting many ciggarettes and random plastic lumps.
Strolling through town gives great chance to get to know new members and discuss reasons for supporting Goodgym, we also got stopped for praise by passers by, which is always nice. Chat covered schools and parts of town, rare litter finds and running (I'm still going on about my Paris marathon).
We wrapped up our new route in the Abbey fields playground, where i somewhat bemoaned the lack of litter this time round, if only our town was more filthy. However, our large group would have made light work on any route, onto the foodbank next week!

A pleasant warm evening, though still a little deceptively chilly, bought 5 Goodgymmers together in town for a good old fashioned litter picking. In a familiar route we snapped up the usual gallery of cigarette butts, drinks bottles and tissues. There was also a plastic lump we declared as likely not Roman era, plus a metal rack Louise insisted on calling a weapon.
Much litter collected in all, plus some nice chat and much to look forward to in the coming months, thats what Tuesdays are all about!

Henry completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Henry was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.
