Four GoodGymmers had a lovely time delivering 34 pizzas 🍕 to QA hospital on behalf of the charity Sophie’s Legacy. Thank you to nurse Grace 👩‍⚕️ for escorting us.

We missed Katie and her van 🚐 tonight! The pizzas and trolley didn’t all fit in the boot, so Jane had to hold on to some on the back seat, thanks to Lisa for the photo and run report pun! 🤣

Pizzas delivered and children and parents were very happy to receive them.

Jen, Dave, Alice and I joined the Portsmouth Tree Wardens to water the very many young trees at the Cascades Tree Nursery.

First we helped set up a production line to fill the watering cans from the 100 litre tank and lined up & tipped the cannisters to fill the tank.

We watered, did a little litter pick and relocated a family of snails who had taken up residence in a watering can. Jen and Dave showed great balance and agility by standing on the wall to water the hard-to-reach trees.

I gave 12 young trees a good drink this morning (5 litres each) on behalf of the Portsmouth Tree Wardens 🌳

A lovely start to the day.

Well done to all of those who took part in today's Monday Miles - that was a scorcher!

Dave, Alice and I joined the Relay Your Way team for a quick 1km leg around Hilsea Lines. This was my first run back after injury, so the short distance seemed perfect... until I then had to run back again to collect the car as one of our team was very sweaty and grumpy post run - I'll let you guess who!! 😉

Katie made the most of Transition Day school run with a 9 mile cycle. Val walked 10km and somehow managed to resist an icecream, whilst Jane embraced a pub pit-stop on her 4-miler.

Our top distance today was covered by Judy and her pals over in Austria, who completed a 19km leg of the Lechweg Trail - and sent some beautiful photos.

As always with Monday Miles, it's not about the distance, just taking a little bit of time to squeeze some activity in to your day. Nice work, everyone!

I gave some of the young trees in Tamworth Park a good drink. These were the saplings we helped the Portsmouth Tree Wardens plant in February.

Success!! After an address error 🤦‍♂️ a couple of weeks ago we were able to help out Ms S today! 😁

Jane and I were asked to clear one side of the garden of weeds and rubbish. We then dug the dead leaves out of a pot and arranged the other planters in an aesthetically pleasing manner 🪴 These will take centre focus for Ms S photos to help sell her house 📷 During our cleanup we also swept the forecourt of the house as the pesky wind kept letting the leaves in! 🚪💨

We enjoyed a lovely chat whilst in the shade and then said our goodbyes.

The lovely selfie of us wouldn't upload so have a nice view of some Australian mountains near a parkrun of a Portsmouth GG-er ex-pat
