A Magical Mystery Tour

Wednesday 2nd April

Written by Laura

Tonight, 11 GoodGymers celebrated the return of the lighter evenings! It's felt like a long winter, so spirits were high tonight.

We headed up to Stainbeck United Reformed Church to clear an area of brambles by the car park. We pruned, trimmed, brushed, litter picked & filled 3 huge sacks of debris. We could notice a huge difference when we left, well done team! Lydia got stuck into the brambles, picking all sorts of weird & wonderful things out including a car wheel, a radio & several items of clothing.

Helen took us on a magical mystery tour on the run back to Heart, encountering a bomb shelter & two horses who didn't bat an eyelid as we ran through their field. We must have made friends since last time!

Welcome to David who joined us this evening and Lyn who organised the session.

Great work team!

Only Fools and Horses

Wednesday 19th February

Written by Laura

Helen took us on an adventurous run on the way back from Beckhill Community Garden last night. If I tell the story, we were chased by two horses into a prickly bush. If Helen tells it, two horses came towards us out of curiosity and I was over dramatic. I like my version better :)

The Wednesday gang headed up to Stainbeck United Reformed Church to clear their paths & litter pick in preparation for their Garden Action Day for kids on half term. The minister is particularly pleased with the drains that Jason was determined to clear. It was nice to go somewhere different and the run on the way back was certainly an adventure! Lydia had just washed her trainers...always a mistake before one of Helen's runs!

Welcome to Ebun on her first task, we hope to see you again soon. Thanks to Helen for another great run.
