Welcome to new runner Mike Smith! Give him a cheer!
We headed for another return visit to Abbeydale Picture House, whereupon we split into groups to carry out a variety of RENOVATION tasks:
Thanks to SUPER STEVE for organising things there.
On the way back we stopped for some FITNESS, starting with some BOX JUMPS before pairing up for QUADRUPLE TROUBLE. A repeat (on a grander scale) of last weeks meet & retreat paired exercise where pairs started at opposite ends, met in the middle for a high 5 and ran back to their start point to complete 10 reps of an exercise before sprinting back to meet their partner for another high 5 and the next exercise.
On the last leg to base at the Showroom we squeezed in a couple of SPRINTS too.
Well done to HEROIC HELEN for reaching 50 good deeds. There is now a bow tie to commemorate the achievement. She was the first lucky recipient to wear it!
I reached 100 good deeds, and as such got to lead the session sporting the Sheffield GG angel wings and winged helmet ensemble.

Once our tasks were complete we said our farewells to Steve & his team. We'll be back soon!
On the way back to the Showroom we did the Hang tough challenge.
Marvellous Mike won, breaking the 3 minute barrier.

Agota Soos has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Agota 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.

An impressive 30 GoodGymmers ran 5k to help out at the Alexandra Road Community Garden for the second time, making short work of path clearing, weeding & even a bit of planting.
Before setting off we welcomed new runners Sarah & Agota.
On arrival and throughout the task the kind folks at the garden provided some much appreciated refreshments, and a fine time was had by all as everyone worked hard. Yet more proof of just how much you can get done in a short space of time with a large group of people! We look forward to repeat visits there.
It was Angelic Steve's 100th Good Deed, and as such he had been provided with wings to mark the occasion - fluffy ones for his back and a winged helmet to complete the look. A sight to behold!
We headed back to base for some brownies provided by Steve, but not before the runners were treated to....
Hill repeats
...on the way back, along with the customary stretches at the end.
Please do join us next week for more GoodGym fun!
