No Cotton Candy But We Did Get Catton Handy

Norwich Report written by Steven Hitcham

pun credit to Darren

Another 2 new runners this week in Mark and Tanya.

Hayley reached the milestone of 25 good deeds!

We were visiting Catton Grove Community Centre this evening (our last visit was voted favourite task of the year) to do dome general tidying up around the outside of the centre. Linda from the centre greeted us once we arrived after the 3km run there, which Mel kindly offered to be back runner.

There were plenty of overgrown bushes and hedges so it was all about trimming those back... I tell you, this group are pros in trimming!

Everyone took on a different area to trim and 35 minutes later you'd be amazed how different the place looked - great effort everyone!

On the way back to The Forum we stopped for a little play in the park... Helen had the most amazing fall on the assault course - no injuries occurred.

It was pub time afterwards for some chill and social time.

Not a distance for the paint-hearted, the smiles of the elderly made it worth while, plus we got fed and watered

Another fantastic turnout tonight, not bad considering it was 30 degrees earlier and we had over 10km to run... but that was not going to stop 32 GoodGym-ers doing what they do best... helping their community.

The task was visiting a Redmayne View Care Home to do some painting and also to spend some time chatting and befriending the residents. I have to say some of my favourite ever GoodGym photos were seeing our runners sitting and chatting to the residents so be sure to check them all out.

We had another 5 new runners tonight so welcome to Tara, John, Rhianna, Richard and Nicolas.

After I stitched Calum up to do the warm-up while I put my bag indoors, we headed off to the task with Katy being back runner. One thing I sure learned tonight was that everywhere north of the city seems to be uphill!

There's nothing better than after a long run to arrive to some lovely refreshments kindly put on for us by Redmayne View. After a quick recovery break it was time to get stuck in. Some of our runners had sat down with some of the residents, some went upstairs to do the painting while the rest did some weeding outside... and Maddy went for a little walk with resident Tony.

We changed some of the painters half way through then after 30 minutes (which equates to 16 hours of volunteer time!) we got ready for the journey back to The Forum.

A really special task completed.

Next week we have two tasks to do between the group... both about 10km in total.

S'weden and gardening this week, 2 tasks in the back of the net then it's running home, it's running home

Norwich Report written by Steven Hitcham

Hats off to Darren for the pun this week. It was a tight call between that and...

Oh my, look at the girth of that wood.

There were 2 tasks tonight. Myself and the bulk of the group were heading to Cooper Lane Scout Hut to help clear a fallen tree (see where the other pun idea came from) and Catherine took a small group to Grapes Hill Community Garden to help them prep for Norwich in Bloom.

We had 5 new runners this evening in Kevin, Maddy, Zara, Martin and Didier.

A good warm up was needed before both groups headed off, for some reason it felt really cold last night after weeks of glorious warmthness.

So it was time to say an emotional farewell to the smaller group as we embarked on routes on opposite sides of the city for the evening.

My group seemed to fly by on one of our quickest journeys... we found out why later as on the way back it all seemed to be uphill!

We arrived at Cooper Lane Scout Hut and Alun had tools already laid out by a large fallen tree, the job was to chop and break it up and move it to a different area. It took no time at all for the GoodGym-ers to be in full swing and there was wood flapping about left, right and centre.

I turned my back for 1 minute and in that time Jack managed to trip over and land butt-down in some stinging nettles... ouchy, but as always he took it like a man.

The smaller group on the other hand were enjoying doing some weeding and a litter pick and were also treated some lovely refreshments.

We arrived back about 5 minutes later than them but Beks took them through some Yoga.

Next week we're visiting Redmayne View Care Home.
