Supercalifragilisticexpiali...PLOGGING!
22 GoodGymers made their way 7.5km to help the Abbeydale Picture House in Sheffield.

22 intrepid GoodGymmers set off into the early autumn evening.
We did a variety of short interval sprints and slaloms around trees and posts on our convoluted way to the Abbeydale Picture House. On arrival it quickly became clear there had been issues with communication - only one member of staff there, who wasn't remotely ready for us!
No matter!
We divided into 3 groups and set about plogging the local area, which is littered with, well... litter. Keeping constantly moving, we collected a good few bags worth of detritus, making the immediate area around the Picture House far more amenable - until the next time!
On the way back to base, we stopped at our regular Umix park haunt, where we paired up for some high fivin' frolics, running towards each other, then running back - rinsing and repeating - and doing:
- 10 Sit ups
- 5 Burpees
- 15 Star Jumps
- 10 Press ups
We also squeezed in a wall sitting competition, where 2 teams faced off with each other with mixed success. A few more sprint intervals led us back to the Showroom for stretching and the bar, where we said our farewells to Ultra Caroline, who has been a steadfast member of GG Sheffield for ages now.
Happy Running!
Regather next week!

I love to be outside. I'm at my happiest skimming stones on a beach, or running somewhere beautiful.
