Welcome back to Roy, great to see this old stalwart of Brighton Goodgym back for his first group run of 2022! And welcome home to Holly, who did lots of Goodgym in London but now she’s all ours!
And a big shout out to JJane who has been inspired by Goodgym to resume running! After joining us a couple of weeks ago as a walker she has dusted down her Couch to 5k app and made it up Edward Street without breaking a sweat!
Our task tonight was Lavender House, a council run seniors housing scheme surrounded by garden with a concrete patio round the back that had got in a bit of a mess. We snipped back the brambles, cut back the Holly, demolished a dead shrub, swept and bagged up the cuttings all in 45 minutes leaving the area transformed.
Then we headed down to the terrace on the seafront for a balance themed fitness session, with the calm sea and setting sun as a backdrop.
