Six Goodgymers turned up to assist RunThrough with their races today.
Steph and Laura were out on the course and had a great morning supporting runners at the final marshalling point. Cheering and running along with them on stretches of their last laps.
Phillip was a 62 min pacer for the 10km - helping people to get a pb on the course
India, Sarah and Wilson registered the runners and dished out race numbers and then helped at the finish line to hand out medals, water and treats!
Another great RunThrough event.
No team photo as we arrived and went straight to work - so sorry about that GG Team! Hope you all had a good morning 😊

As we couldn't possibly have a GoodGym Social without squeezing in a good deed, to finish off our sixth birthday celebrations we removed the radiator covers at The Gibson Centre and gave them a good dust, sweep and scrub!

Having a birthday party during a Bank Holiday weekend meant that we weren't able to all assemble today, but we had a lovely afternoon, chatting, quizzing and sharing delicious homemade treats!
Dave was our Quiz Master for the afternoon, and we enjoyed unscrambling the first letters of each answer to find the hidden anagram - HAPPY SIXTH BIRTHDAY. We definitely didn't have any of our super-competitive members today, as everyone banded together, comparing answers so we could solve the puzzle. Although it turns out nobody knew the capital of Morocco, only that it wasn't Marrakech!
Obviously we couldn't miss out on squeezing in a little good deed, so we removed all of the radiator covers and got scrubbing!

Goodgym Southampton is one year old today!! 🎉🎂
To celebrate we went to city farm with an army of goodgymers ready and eager to help with whatever task Tom may have had in mind for us. We were pretty sure it was going to be more goat mountain shenanigans but were shocked when farm volunteer Danni mentioned that this evening we would be helping put all the animals to bed and meeting them all by means of celebration and thankyou.
We were thoroughly spoilt - getting to feed the sheep and goats, getting walked by the new pygmy boys, putting the chickens and ducks to bed and meeting all the reptiles from the blue tongued skink to the gecko and giant african land snail.
After our tour of the farm we were kindly given use of the community room to celebrate our birthday with cake and drinks kindly supplied by Energise Me and Ellie.
We were also delighted to see Paul and Simon back with us after last weeks litter pick and to welcome Aimee for her first goodgym task.
Its been an incredible year with 157 tasks(!!!). Heres to seeing what year two brings!

Before birthday celebrations could commence at the farm this evening we were back to work delivering the 10,000 leaflets alloted to us to deliver.
We had 8 super helpers this evening and it really did prove that 8 and not 3 is the magic leafleting number! We even held a guard of welcome honour for Leszek who found us.
we very quickly got through 200 leaflets with some time for frolics thrown in before heading back to the farm. Great job team!

Portsmouth Report written by Angela Chick (she/her)
On a wet and windy Thursday morning, India and Angela headed out for a run, armed with gloves and bags and the determination to tidy up the area they spotted on their run on Tuesday. It was very wet and windy but they were treated to a visit from a seal who made sure they were doing a good job. With plenty of fast food wrappers, beer cans, plastic food wrapping, various fishing waste (Angela found a half used bag of bait with a very stinky squid in it), plenty of wet wipes and cotton bud sticks. They each filled a bag before emptying them into the bin and heading off home to work. Now… for many cups of tea to warm up!

Well done! Where did you see the seal?!

The seal was down by the Eastney landing for the Hayling ferry - right by the RNLI building at the end of Fort Cumberland Road 😍

What started as an extremely soggy day on the Common soon brightened up ready for the RunThrough Southampton running festival. Wilson and Sarah set to work registering runners for the 5k, 10k and half marathon events. We also had India from GoodGym Portsmouth joining us to help for the morning. Great to see you! Philip and Stephanie headed to their marshalling positions out on the course full of cheer. Blue and I set off tail running for the half marathon and finished with someone doing their first ever race at that distance. A great morning everyone, well done.
