Share the love

🌹16 sensational GoodGymmers met on a pleasant (if chilly) Valentines Monday evening. The moon was bright and it had stopped raining so love of GoodGym was firmly in the air 🌝

❤️ To prove this, we each said what we love about GoodGym (and/or running). The ability to consume cake and/or beer featured strongly, along with a lot of love for Mitch 🥰

👋We were thrilled to welcome Morgan for his first session with us and greatly appreciated that his love of GoodGym was for our snazzy red t shirts👕

🥳We also wished Tristan a very happy birthday 🎂

😵‍💫Having suspected that Kristina and I may have got our wires crossed about tonight's task, my back up planning was vindicated and put into action. Therefore, having established that Kristina was unlikely to arrive at West Bank Park, a troop of folk popped back to the Barretts' house to collect the GoodGym litter pickers. The rest of us headed to Hob Moor via Windmill Rise for some hill reps (what a treat!) 🏔️

🥫After smashing the hill reps, we regrouped at Hob Moor for some litter-picking. What initially felt like a “hunt the litter” session, we eventually found a patch of litter-ful ground and felt that we’d at least achieved some good with our evening, having filled a few bags-worth 🛍️

🍪After posing for a group photo next to a group of orienteer-ers who we were sharing Hob Moor with tonight, we headed back to base, stretched and ate biscuits before parting ways home/to the pub 🍻

📸Apologies for the less organised than usual session tonigh, and for my shockingly bad group photo – Louise took the decent photos.
