A magnificent, seven GoodGym members came together to help Long Lane Pasture Nature Reserve. We gathered and chatted at the phoenix cinema. Niki talked about her holiday to Japan, and climbing Mount Fuji. Very movingly she said she couldn’t have done it without the regular fitness sessions with GoodGym! ( some say it even crossed her mind to do a litter pick at the top!) Cloud had her birthday at the weekend give her a shout out! Sisters Beattie and Rachel a watched a film on Ukraine, ... which they highly recommended! This group of five then ran the 2 km to the nature reserve where we met Maureen from the Friends group By this time, Jyothsna and Yesika had joined us. Now we were seven. Maureen let us go for a quick, jog around the reserve. We also stopped to do some lunges, squats and star jumps. We then got down to work with our litter, pickers and bags, removing rubbish from the local footpath. We then headed back to finish and warmed down just outside the Phoenix Cinema. Thanks for coming running and doing some good.
