Tonight was the last Group Run of January and we had 26 people join us, taking our tally of good deeds for the month to a whopping 125! We've also seen some astonishing amount of km's recorded on Strava!

We had another 2 new runners in Liam and Claire.

Some milestones this week too - Lizzie has completed 10 Groups Runs, Samantha 20 Group Runs and Katy to 25 Group Runs!

We had a 2km each trip ahead of us to Edmund Bacon Court, which is a Sheltered Housing Scheme for the elderly. The task was to clear a load of fallen sticks and do bit of gardening. On the way there we encountered not only some box jumps but also some tricep dips!

Trevor met us there and had tools at the ready. 5 went to do the gardening and rest went on a stick collecting spree, including the big grass area which could then be used as an area to do a circuit session on later haha.

I also discovered a broken bone so was fitting for the pun this week!

So after 25 minutes, the GoodGym-ers created a pile of sticks that looked like we were preparing for Bonfire night!

So then it was time for a 16-minute EMOM (Every Minute On the Minute), which consisted of a lot of Push-ups, Squats, Hand to Elbow and Burpees!

We then went back to The Forum where I opened up a couple of packs of biscuits as a thank you for everyone's hard work recently.

Next week we're heading to Eaton Park.

Another really good evening, even though I couldn’t manage most of the EMOM 😢
