Charlotte Newlyn has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Charlotte is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Fantastic turn out at Goodgym Bath tonight... whoop!! 17 runners turned up on this cold evening for a 6k run and each and everyone of them armed with an unwanted hat/gloves, coat or blanket to hand out to the rough sleepers in the city. I think it's important to feel thankful for what and who we have in our life, because any set of circumstances can change how and where we live.
Great to see some new faces this evening, welcome introductions during the headcount to Charlotte and Abi. (Red laces on the way for Lydia, Nicola and Emma). Tony Gambiccia who cycled across from Keynsham to donate a coat and Matthew Palmer who kindly took our group photo on his way out from spinning, hopefully they'll join us soon. Thank you guys. Time to hit the streets and cover as much ground as we could in search of rough sleepers, It wasn't long before the group were able to start handing out everything needed to help keep someone a little bit warmer and some lovely very grateful people out there tonight to make use of our unwanted items.
We even had time for some sprint work tonight in the form of sprint 3's plus some agility work and of course some walking lunges as requested by Lydia, although she did get a few side glances from the group members...ha!! Love enthusiasm in the group. A bit of furniture fitness on the benches in the Southgate centre with a final clothes drop on Pultney bridge before heading back to the leisure centre for a few stretches. Great fun tonight with lots of laughter, not only because Joe was like the caped crusader running around and Sam was trying to hand stuff out to people who weren't homeless but still happy to receive a free jumper.
Thanks to Abi for tonights pun and to Pascale for back marking.
You guys are all fabulous and remember without you, it wouldn't be possible, there is also a chance to bag a free pair of red laces if you bring a friend along during Jan and Feb.
Bring your ID along to the next group run to get paired up or go with n missions.
Don't forget The Boater quiz on Thursday Jan 26th at 8pm.
