Goodgym teamed up with Stoke Park Active Volunteers to take down the Valentines decorations. Our hearts were racing as we paced around the room finding anything heart shaped to take down off the walls.

We also sorted out the art therapy books for the charity's social club. It felt ( tip ) great to help.

The charity is very grateful for the love shown today in helping out.

This morning we helped salthill junior parkrun celebrate their final event of the year and we did it the only way we know ho ho how - in fancy dress of course.

We all woke up right as rein(deer) before putting on our best Chrimbo clothes - which for Harsha, Sutyee and Manjit involved the loudest, brightest, warmest.... Gold coats! And there was Noel time like present day to wear them (it was freezing this morning!)

So as we arrived at the park to many a sideways glance! We had to hold on for deer life as the finish funnel was set up in the frosty windy conditions! Once set up we went off to set up the rest of the course - snow far snow good!

The dress up memo was read by some but forgotten by others - they are on the naughty list.

Prancer Pam was there with her santa hat and out on marshal position

Happy holly-day Harsha was GG (Golden Girl 1) also on marshal duty

Chrimbo Ciaran was on timekeeping

Advent calendar Abdul was out on marshal position

(No) Santa Sara was also out on marshal duties

Mince pie Manjit (GG) Golen Girl 2 was on scanning duties whilst Sparkle Sut (GG) Golden Girl 3 was in charge as Run Director

What a lovely finish to the year

Merry Christmas everyone See you in 2025!
