Vanilla Ice Ice (cream) Baby
25 GoodGymers made their way 10.6km to help the Redmayne View in Norwich.

This week saw us visit our good friends at Redmayne View Care Home, a nice 5.5km each way run!
Tonight's Group Run was sponsored by Co-ops Fortnight.
Cheska was completing her 25th good deed while both Tasha & Sam were completing their 50th good deeds... more black t-shirts on the way :-)
Bill was back runner.
On arrival, the residents were out in numbers to come and see us and say hello, it's wonderful how we've developed such a close bond with them all.
Redmayne View had kindly hired out an ice cream van to supply a Mr Softee to each resident and GoodGym runner, what a lovely gesture!
The 1st task was to hand out a Mr Softee (aka a '99) to each resident before having one ourselves. Alex decided to OD on sausage instead, the boy loves a good sausage.
We then weeded the main garden area plus any little individual gardens the residents have outside of their flats.
It was another truly lovely evening and we can't wait to go back already!
Thank you to Katy for leading the group back as I had to dash off to another job at the end of the night!
Next week we're visiting Catton Grove Community Centre.
