5 years on and still going so very strong

Little did we know 5 years ago, that our small but mighty GG group would bring so much joy and so many good memories to us all. What a 5 years its been with covid being thrown at us too. Who remembers all those zoom hours of fitness, quizzes and drinks evenings? !

Everyone has their own choice of favourite task and favourite fitness move but I think we are all unanimous about the fun, laughter and great vibes we always have.

Tonight was no exception!

We were joined by our very own Beth who was one of our founder members who went to that very first task back in March 2017 . We are proud to take credit that this is where Beth's GG journey started!

Into this hall of fame also go Gillybean and Belinda who were also founder members. Duncan who takes the kudos for bringing GG to Worthing, was certainly with us in spirit that first night, but was tied up ( not literally) in a board meeting and so couldn't attend.

Tonight we were also joined by Rosalind doing good in her big scarf since Feb 2018 John was slightly late to the party but eventually gave in and joined us in January 2019 Paul who has been with us nearly since the start in October 2017 Barbara who, is so integral to our group joined us in April 2018 and Rickyin October 2019 ( and hasnt stopped running since! )

Litter by litter

We split into 2 groups of runners who, led by Beth ran for 25 minutes and the walkers who headed straight to Denton Gardens for a ' behind the scenes ' litter pick.

The runners and the walkers then headed along to Anchor Gardens to continue our work there whilst Barbara and I set up our mini party on the lawns.

Party Time

We were joined by Anne, Steve and Natacha plus Lennie for the the final part of the evening.

We raised to a glass and cut cake in celebration of a great 5 years and to our absent friends who couldn't make it tonight.

Here's to another memorable year or 5 !

See you next week at Kamelia Kids :)
