Another leaflet delivery done for Together Trust - this time advertising for their upcoming raffle and Car Boot Sale.

It was great to see Julie back at GoodGym again and hear all about what she's been up to and her cold water dipping!

We spoke about our excitement for the clocks going forward and being able to run in the light again!

Tonight saw our annual Christmas run to see the festive lights! 🎄

Each year the residents of Warwick Drive in Hazel Grove deck their houses with the most marvelous display of Christmas lights and scenery to raise money for Make a Wish Foundation. Make a Wish Foundation aims to provide life changing experiences for children with life changing illnesses. 🌟

The running group began from Life Leisure Bramhall and met the walking group en route before navigating our way to view the spectacular delights of Warwick Drive. ⛄️

Alongside regular goodgymers, it was lovely to welcome Juno 🐶 and Dougie 🐶 and 2024's newest recruits, Olive 👶 and Emmy 👶.

We enjoyed festive mince pies and baked goods before jogging back home. 🥧🍪

🎁 Merry Christmas everyone 🎅

❤️ It's been an emotional day - even the cake is in tiers! 😂

💪 Four years ago, in Lockdown, I bagged the role of Area Activator for @goodgymstockport

🥰 Little did I know that what started as a dream job, would turn into me also meeting the best bunch of friends there is! You are all ACE!

🏃‍♀️200 Tuesday evenings spent, come rain, shine or snow (mainly rain!) leading group runs, volunteering our time in the community and having the most laughs and fun times!

🥳 A rainy walk and cake in the carpark of @lifeleisureuk was the perfect send off! Thanks guys! 😘

Shout out to Hannah for the most delicious cake that was ever made!

Last night saw a wonderful turnout of incredible GoodGymers - new and familiar (not old!) to help the High Lane Residents Association to clear a plot of land on the Middlewood Way.

The HLRA are planning to plant a beautiful display of sunflowers on the previously overgrown and bramble covered area.

We took a 2.5 km scenic but uphill run to meet David and his HLRA colleague at the location, before setting to work with some serious digging and wheelbarrowing.

Within no time, the area was bramble free and we were all ready for an easy downhill return.

Last night's GoodGym Stockport group run was a Suntastic delivery task for a local charity Independent Options.

They are offering a local free brunch club for the residents of Marbury Road estate and needed a hand to get the word out.

3 GoodGymers set off from base, with 3 meeting at the task point, ready for a chatty task and a good old catch up.

Nearly 5 years ago, one of GoodGym Stockport's earliest tasks was to help Alexandra Park Primary School to de-weed and clear up their outdoor area to allow it to be utilised by the pupils in the warmer months. 5 years on and we were back for more of the same!

We set off from our Life Leisure base for an uphill sprint, with a scenic park loop added for mindful measure and clocked up 3km before arriving at the School.

Peter, the school's Business Manager, greeted us with tools and tasks and we set off with the challenge of clearing the area of weeds.

We dug, we shovelled, we weeded and we chatted before completing the task (bang on time!)
