7 Goodgym runners ran across Cardiff to help the Salvation Army in their garden. It was a nice bit of T-Rexercise.
This was the second time we have visited to prep the garden ready for planing. Michael got the tools from the shed and it was time to 'Get it on'. Gardening tools that is, no need for the 'Dino-saw' today!
We cleared down the weeds and dead plants from several planters. We also got rid of the rogue ivy from near the shed. Then we discussed some gardening feng-shui and we moved around the pots and long planters to make better use of the space - check the pics.
Rather than 'ride a white swan' we decided to run back with some T-Rex tunes playing on Michael's speaker, content we had left the garden and the planters ready for ready for the residents to start designing and planting in the coming weeks. I'm sure whatever they create will look T-Rexquisite.

Cardiff Report written by Michael
Tonight the gallant goodgymers were out for the WIN, cyclists, walkers and runners came together like some sort of Bolt-on Wanderers, ready to take on the mighty task. Leaving Cardiff City to take on a new challenge. Tonight was all about helping at the young persons homeless hostel, cleaning the back space and games pitch. This was our first time "playing" at Hostel Villa, but armed with our Arsenal of tools we went around to the "Notareal Forest" to start our battle against the fallen leaves of Mulchester City.
There were nods to the history of football as we saw the revival of sweepers tonight....and didn't they do WELL alongside the wonders of the wheelBARROW transfers. The leaves piled up defeated, and the grounds resembled a NEWcastle united by the goodgymers.
After a well deserved winning photo, the team took to the streets to celebrate the win and get a Tot-in-em after a hot-spur run.

Catherine Hughes completed 25 good deeds with GoodGym.
Catherine 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.

In a dirty* episode of the Netflix series tonight, 12 Goodgym folks ran and walked to Adamsdown. * dirty as in rubbish btw!
(Be warned this is a mis-match of Bridge and Bridgerton puns, and I have never seen Bridgerton).
They split into two groups and quickly collected 6 bags of rubbish, which put the GG total for the day to 10 bags. Tantalizingly close to our 100 bag target for the month. Sign up on the relay sheet and collect a bag before the month is out if you can! Please!!
Take me to the Bridge - some of the group headed off to collect rubbish from a particularly mucky bridge that Imy and Martin had spotted en route to the meeting point.
Simon and Garfunkel could not make it but this really was a Bridge over troubled waste and several bags were quickly filled with the usual litter items as well as some discarded clothing - probably flung off prior to a steamy scene on set!
The other group collected rubbish from around the school and nearby playground. There was nothing novel about this task, although we did collect some pulp fiction at one point. Some passers by of the polite society did thank us for carrying out our work with such nobility. We collected lots of chocolate and sweet wrappers but sadly no Viscount ones!
We won't win any Emmy awards for our work but we enjoyed it and have done some more good in the Community.

Credit to everyone who has turned up to the ore task litter picks this month, the area around the church was looking nice and not too littered this evening. struggling to fill two bags the group branched out to nearby offices and university buildings and hit the jackpot. Darren and Nathan, who now have a keen sense for litter after all their January efforts, shuffled along a raised wall to find a mountain of bottles and cans. in no time at all they were up to four bags of rubbish bursting at the seams, and were warmed up nicely to go and join the main group task
