Bill and Katy were both doing their 100th GoodGym deed tonight. What an unbelievable achievement! They are the only remaining members from the very 1st GoodGym Norwich run 2 years ago and are such great ambassadors of what we're all about. Plus they brought us cake!!

Katie and Jason were on their 1st GoodGym experience so a big welcome to them :-)

We had plenty of races to catch up on from the weekend from those who took part in the Wroxham 5K, Colchester Zoo 10K, Hackney Half and Nuclear Races Mud Run. For the latter, Brad did send photographic evidence of Emily's butt bruise on the WhatsApp group but being the gent that (kind of) I am I haven't shared it on the run report haha.

Tonight we were visiting Marlpit Community Gardens, a picturesque location near the Wensum Valley, which is a 4km each-way run. It was a lovely warm clear evening, perfect for a task like this.

Local guru Mahesh was there to meet us. The tasks in hand were to weed the concrete area, pull out weeds amongst the herb garden (only the weeds Michaela!), shear the verges, rake the long cut grass and brush down the concrete area (Hayley said she can handle a big one so took on the large broom). So loads to do in 35 minutes but this makes such a big difference to a local community garden.

Despite having lots to do I did put my rubber gloves on and offered a free health check for anyone who wanted to take me up on the offer... which unsurprisingly was no-one :-(

After all of the hard work, we piled up the produce (no pun intended) and it was then you could really see how much we achieved.

We could have stayed all evening but there was cake awaiting at The Forum so we did have to head back, despite us already being 20 minutes late.

The cake was amazing Bill and Katy... I didn't have 3 pieces, honest.

Next week we're still running on bank holiday and it's a long one (11km) as we visit Redmayne View Care Home for a reminiscence evening with the residents.
