James Norris has done their first good deed with GoodGym.

James 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.

Mr Sand(ing)man, bring the suncream

Bristol Report written by Shona Buchanan

Feeling hot, hot, hot

On the hottest day of 2018 so far, our gaggle of GoodGymers were not intimidated by the sun which was still blasting as we gathered for our Tuesday evening run. It was great to have James and Nicole join us tonight for the first time - welcome both. And a massive congratulations to Chris and Caroline who both achieved their 200th Good Deeds tonight, fantastic!

Nailing it at Felix Road Adventure Playground

After we got even warmer through, well, warming up, the group split into two to spread our Good Deeds around Bristol. Sally did a great job of leading her first group run and took a group to Felix Road Adventure Playground. The group got stuck in with sorting the massive amounts of wood they have at the playground, removing nails so that it can be reused around the playground and in the pizza oven.

Planking at Emmaus

The rest of the group went to Emmaus, where we finally conquered the prickly bushes last month. Xanne introduced the new runners to the wonderful work Emmaus do to help people who have experienced homelessness or are currently suffering from homelessness in Bristol.

Following Xanne's warnings, the brave members of the group ventured to the mezzanine of the warehouse to forage a path through piles of furniture, Christmas decorations (much to the joy of Mr Christmas a.k.a. Richard), exercise balls and whatever else you could possibly think of. This will make the warehouse a much safer place to be again for the people using it. And we got to try on hats, so it was a double win.

The other half of the group put in a brilliant effort sanding, soap washing and painting planks which are going to be used to put up new shelfing. Cue a selection of fantastic NSFW puns by the group on wood and nails...

THE 1(.2 ) kilometre time trial of the year

On return from Emmaus and Felix Road Adventure Playground, Bristol GoodGym held their very own 1 kilometre time trial for the GoodGym Olympics. With some outstanding 1km efforts, including Patrick, Darren and Gary fighting a very close race to the finish - brilliant efforts by everyone who took part and fantastic cheering by the cheering squad!
