Parkalicious Run 🏃‍♂️ ♥️

Saturday 10th May

Written by Rauul The Owl (He/him)

Nice early start of Park Run after doing night shift.

Signed up for Park Walking volunteering role to get more walkers signed and enjoyed the run.

Got to Sutton park 10 mins before the run start. There were loads of runners/walkers already there ready to start. Straight went to run Director to introduce myself and picked up Park Walking light Blue hiving, so we are visible to all walkers.

1 lap course for Park run ( Bit hilly) but enjoyable. Had great time and fun.

Even got cake and cookies after as a treat.

Weedy Good Creosoting!

Tuesday 6th May

Written by Jonny Carter

We had a great turn out at GG Brum tonight back at St Thomas Nursery School.

Jonny biked with Morwenna running and Christina also on her bike. The rest of the group walked, with Eve and James fresh from their Birmingham Half Marathon exploits!

The task was weeding and creosoting, hence the pun. We got some nice weeding before and after pictures and we got the 'story seat' and the greenhouse creosoted, so it was a great task done :)

No pane, no gain! 🪟

Wednesday 23rd April

Written by Amy

Two GoodGymers met Karen from Friends of the Earth and set about cleaning the windows and bike shelter.

We wiped, scrubbed and rinsed until it was sparkling clean! We then swept up the debris and put it in the compost.

HooRea for GoodGym 😁🎉

Tuesday 22nd April

Written by Miriam

Tonight Miriam and Richard embarked on a sunny evening plog along the River Rea (hence the pun!/pronunciation guide to non Brummies on the river name)

Once we reached Cannon Hill Park we were assisted by the loveliest kids who helped us and enjoyed using the litter pickers. 7K ran and a bag of rubbish collected and an ice cream pot seized from a squirrel.

No Villains on the Canal Tonight!

Tuesday 15th April

Written by Jonny Carter

Tonight it was great to welcome Gemma to GoodGym for the first time.

The task was a litter pick on our adopted stretch of the canal.

We managed 2 half full bags of litter in double quick time.

Both of us were walkers tonight bumping into a couple of Villa fans on their way to the big game against PSG tonight, hence the pun!

Once done we headed back to 1000 Trades and a good 2 miles walked.
