You Are All Out Of This World ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

Woking Report written by Wayne

Annual Martian Race ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

It was that time of the year again for the Woking Martian Race. It was not as hot as it has been previous years but still a very warm day. Today there were plenty of events going on with most GoodGym members either taking part in the race and volunteering as marshals.โ˜€๏ธ

James unfortunately could not be at this years events as he was doing the Richmond 1OK and then straight after heading to Kingston for the Southern Athletics League event ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ.

Wayne arrived at the event village early as he pulled out of the race due to not being ๐Ÿ’ฏ% so decided to volunteer as a marshal. Wayne had to be at the event for 07:30 for a safety briefing as well as picking up his high viz, instructions on how to get to his marshal spot as well as a goodie bag from the sponsors ๐Ÿ˜„. Wayne also helped some of the local vendors with setting up their stalls. Wayne was at checkpoint 29 which was quite close the event village and in the shaded woodland ๐ŸŒณarea of the common โ˜€๏ธ. Wayne had enough time to go and find his spot and come back to see his fellow goddgymers.

First to arrive was Annewith her beaming smile she was rearing to go, Annehas been getting her regular runs in the week in preparation for her tackling the 10k route ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ.

Next to arrive where the Jacksons. Katie & Phil had signed up to do the 10k and have been training really hard for it especially Katie. Shortly after Kirsty, Adam, & Alys arrived.

Alys was doing the 5k while Adam who is currently nursing an injury decided to do the 10k along with Kirsty who was running for the first time in Months after her injury they both decided to run together same as last year โค๏ธ

Nadia & Andy arrived they were originally part of the cheering squad but decided to sign up t do the 5k which was great.It was fantastic to see so many local running clubs as well as local organisations that Woking GG have helped over the years. There was plenty of support for everyone from all over the course ๐Ÿ˜‡

First to go were the kids who were doing 2k it was great to see many young faces from the junior park run that Woking GG have an active role.This was followed by the 21k, which was then followed by the 10k and finally the 5k.๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Wayne had to head off to his post which was checkpoint 27.The first GG Runner that Wayne saw was Nadia & Andy. Shortly after Phil came towards Wayne Phil got extra shouts of support as he is Wayne favourite ๐Ÿคฃ. Wayne had to wait a while before he saw the next GG member and it was the lovely Katie always smiling and looking fresh as a daisy ๐Ÿ’จ.

There was another wait about 15mins before Wayne saw Alys all in Red, with her tutu and GG Cap laughing and smiling away ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ. In the distance Wayne saw a red shirt and it was Anne and went to see her but noticed that Anne had her hand wrapped up due to her falling a few times and cutting her palm as well a bruising her arm, but Anne being tough as old boots continued with her run (Superwomen)

Shortly after in the distance Wayne heard a familiar laugh it was Kirsty & Adamcome through the clearing in the treeโ€™s, both of them doing incredibly well considering their injuries.๐ŸŒŽ

It was now coming up to 3 hours and Karl the tail runner appeared with the final runner. We all ran back together and cheered the final runner across the finishing line.

Everyone did so well and once again plenty of money was raised for local charities ๐Ÿ†

After the event some members headed home while a few headed into town for a well deserved lunch.๐Ÿ˜„

Fantastic work everyone see you all next year.

Down in the bramble!

Woking Report written by Agathe Montagnon

Great work done under warm weather with Katie, Anne, Wayne join me ( Agathe) to help the RSPCA centre cutting brambles around one of the dogs' compound.

Glad to hear Anne spent a lovely time seeing family in France while Wayne is looking forward to going on holiday in Dubai in August, and our Katie is soon going to be a mother!

Anne and Agathe ended up walking a bit afterwards talking in frogs' language and debating about Moliรจre! More seriously, we saw at least 7 rabbits or hares - as they were quite big - running around in the field, 3 horses, lots of birds and a magnificient doe jumping around like she was escaping a lion!! (it was just Anne and I, remember!)

Everyone is looking forward to running this Sunday at the Martian Race. I wonโ€™t be attending though but I wish you a merry Christmโ€ฆ(oops not yet!) Martian Race.Donโ€™t forget to wear sunscreen as itโ€™s going to be roasting!! :D

Community Spirit ๐Ÿ˜€

Woking Report written by Wayne

Knaphill Community Fridge

This evening 5 Goodgym members met at Knaphill Community Fridge to give the shed a good dust down and a lick of paint ๐Ÿ˜€

Anne ran 6k along the canal to get to the fridge while Katie also ran 6k but from the opposite direction both ladies getting their runs in before the Martian Race in a few weekends time ๐Ÿ‘ฝ Wayne, Kirsty & Julie made there own way there. They were greeted my Jules who had two tasks that needed to be done. Wayne, Katie & Anne started to dust down the outside of the fridge before they applied a stain varnish onto the shed while Kirsty & Julie worked on a bedding in the pre-school removing weeds and planting new plants and flowers ๐ŸŒผ. It was a beautiful evening and plenty of conversations while the tasks were being carried out.

In no time both tasks had been completed and they looked great ๐Ÿ˜€

Jules was very pleased with the results
