A bitterly cold evening as we visited Route 63 of the National Cycle Network up through Rally Park to Stokeswood Park to pick litter. We were delighted to hear Lindsay's new that she'd been out for a gentle run, tremendous news after almost two years of injury!
The runners ran the litter picking route and looped back to intercept the walkers who'd already made a start on the mess outside the new school by the river. The two ends of our task tonight, outside the school and the path the other side of Fosse Road North were the litter hotspots with the middle section, Rally Park, being unusually tidy - perhaps some other litter warriors had beaten us to the punch.
Super work as always gang, well done!
Happy running, HD

Back out in the fresh air to kick off 2022 in style tonight with some litter picking on the National Cycle Network helping make the route more pleasant for commuters and exercisers alike!
We shared stories of mostly quiet Christmas breaks while tackling the cycle path and verges of the assortment of cans, bottles, crisp packets and miscellaneous trash! Lindsay (who had forgotten her head torch) took under five minutes to find a full strip light in the hedge which caused a chuckle.
A slightly longer run back than the direct route and some 30 metre sprint every 30 seconds reps outside DMU got the fitness sessions back in gear for the year.
Next week's task is TBC but it will definitely be outside!
Also please check out the GoodGym Leicester Members Facebook page for a poll on potential weekends to volunteer at junior parkrun.
Happy running, HD

A wonderful way to round off GoodGym 2021 as we ran to help the Rotary Club of the Wreake Valley raise money on their Santa Sleigh! We actually met Santa!
The runners ran the scenic route to Trevino Drive to meet the sleigh and off we set around the cul-de-sacs on the estate bringing joy to adults and children alike.
Fundraising buckets were filled, the comedy highlight being a man trying to throw a five pound note from his upstairs window and the wind blowing on to next door's garage roof! Fair play to him, he threw another one down for our buckets!
We'll have the fundraising total in the coming days but a fantastic effort this evening everyone!
Have a restful break, enjoy your running and we'll see you in 2022!
