Sapan Gandhi has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Sapan 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.

Sapan Gandhi completed their first run in a new area.
Curious? Sapan has just run their first session in another area. For that explorative spirit Sapan is awarded the scout badge. A Scout is trustworthy

Ealing Report written by Liv Parker-Scott
On Saturday 5th January GoodGym descended on Gunnersbury Parkrun with 32 of us turning up to volunteer, run and plog our way to a fantastic start to the new year!
As well as regulars from Ealing and Hounslow we had tourists from lots of other GoodGym areas which was lovely to see. We also had 4 brand new GoodGym members join us so a big welcome to Sarb, Andre, Chris and Alasdair!
Cheers to the volunteers!
We filled most of the volunteer spots for parkrun and it was great to see all the red GoodGym t-shirts out in the park across various roles. We had scanners, marshals, time keepers and token sorters as well as pacers, a tail walker and runners over the whole field! A massive thank you to everyone who helped out, almost everyone who ran also helped with either the set up or break down too so it really was a team volunteering effort!
Well done to the runners!
It's all about the pace
Pacing is not an easy task and everyone did great!
It's never BIN bigger...
After a record attendance at Gunnersbury parkrun (626 in total!) it was time for the main event... Plogging! We all chipped in to help pack up the parkrun equipment and then assembled to arm ourselves with bin loops, pickers and gloves and split into groups across the park to help clean up any litter we could find. The woods lining the paths seemed to be the worst affected areas so we all did a bit of rambling around and in some cases crawling under shrubbery to get those pesky cans out!
We split everything into recyclable and rubbish so that it could be taken to the right bins after we were done and luckily most of what we found ended up in recycling!
We agreed to meet back at the nice warm cafe where everyone ditched the equipment in favour of a well earned hot beverage before parting ways, I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday morning!
Thank you to everyone for coming along!
