Sue completed 25 good deeds with GoodGym.

Sue has already done 25 good deeds with GoodGym. Instead of doing anything else, they've used their run to go and help people that need their help; digging, lifting, scraping, clearing, planting and weeding. Stuff that makes this a better place to be.

Anyone for a paddle?

Windsor and Maidenhead Report written by Windsor and Maidenhead runner

Tony, Sue and Sheila braved the coldest morning of the season so far to go and help muck out the pond at Braywick Nature Reserve. After donning waders ( all except for Sue, whose neat little size 3 feet would have been swamped in the sizes available) and long gloves, we made our way down to the pond. We had to climb over the fence as the gate padlock was frozen, and break the ice on the pond, but Tony was straight into the water in the partially-drained pond. Together with Rangers Tom and Rosie, and members of the Parks Team, we set to work digging out sludge from the edge of the pond into buckets which were then emptied out on the edge of the area. Always being mindful of not digging into the pond liner. Tom and Tony got the pump going to lower the water level and reveal more lovely sludge. We all ended up covered in mud, but had a great time helping out, and after a hose-down back at base, made our way home for a warm-up Feeling like you've missed out? More mud-moving scheduled for next week https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/help-maintain-the-pond-in-the-braywick-nature-reserve-088520ce-95d4-4ffb-aec3-600e17c6253a

A prickly situation!

Windsor and Maidenhead Report written by Mandy Driver

Thursday 6:15/ 6:30pm is GoodGym Windsor Night! ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Tonight we were just off the Maidenhead Road in Windsor on a committed mission. The long pathway had got so overgrown that the access to the houses that were occupied by the elderly residents was proving difficult.

Getting there:- Jen and Didem walked from The Binoy. Bekah, Helen and Mandy ran from home. Sue and Adam met us there.

Sue and Adam made an amazing head start ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿปalongside Helen by the time the other walkers/runners had arrived and Sue had luckily taken some before photos in the light ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ“ธ . They had chopped then filled a huge bag full of cuttings. The rest of us needed to catch up so we got our gloves on and chose a tool from Sueโ€™s mobile shed ๐Ÿคฃ we had quite a long stretch to cover so we took an area and cut back what we could. Lots of spikey brambles, stinging nettles etc but we battled well.

We had a chat about our days/weeks while we worked and Bekah multi tasked as she was also the photographer ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

The sunset a dry evening was lovely but darkness was soon upon us and despite our torches we couldnโ€™t continue as it was so dark along the passage and we were running out of bags.

We dragged the bags to the main road for the council to collect.

Fortunately (or unfortunately however you prefer to look at it ๐Ÿคฃ) there was time to do a quick workout. Jen had a challenge to do squats today so the traffic passing by got a good view ๐Ÿคฃ

Not forgetting the Windsor curtsy and bow before we partly walked together before going our separate ways home.

Thank you for coming. ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

We'ed better get weeding

Windsor and Maidenhead Report written by Windsor and Maidenhead runner

4 GoodGymers joined forces this morning at Spital Cemetery in Windsor. Our task was a simple one, weed a long bed, just leaf the roses alone!! As a political discussion threatened to delay the start, Sheila gently coaxed us over to the task location. As the weeds were pulled, the conversation moved from imminent knee operations, to travels plans to busy over head flight paths, you wouldn't be leaf the subjects covered. The sun appeared and as the temperature rose ๐ŸŒน the beds were cleared. Soon it was thyme to bid our goodbyes. We all agreed that we had done a blooming good job!
