Well, Happy New Year! It was great tonight to welcome 4 new runners to GoodGym Coventry, it was great to meet Becka, Amy,Anika and Jonathan. Tonight 15 members of GoodGym Coventry ran 5km to clear the paths of the canal.

First, we headed to bridge 4 , once there, groups were made ensuring enough lights, bins and grabbers. Over the Christmas period, lots of rubbish had gathered including some KS2 revision notes, a bag, many cans and lots of poo bags and we spotted the odd bit of wildlife . Working together, the canal paths were soon litter free and the area around bridge 3 was given a spruce up too. We did thta good a job, a local resident stopped and came to thank us for teh hard work we were doing :) We also took group photos so we could see Allan's new camera in action.

Running back to the canal, we chatted and caught up on exciting news from the festive period. Outside Drapers, we completed some strength work to help build our leg muscles ready for the year ahead. As it was James's last run with us before he returns to near Hull so we stayed behind to catch up and bid him a fond farewell.
