It was a great core workout in Victoria Park today with two tractor trailers full of bark and wood chippings to dispense and rake into the beds. It took us the full session to complete and was very satisfying to see the beds looking so healthy. We had a cloudy start, but ended the session with some lovely waming sunshine - so energising. We were able to sit outside watching the wildlife, and having a cuppa before going on our way.

Not too bad was the conclusion for today.

Although the newly munched beds could've been hiding a few treats!!

Clothing of course was discovered. And a full can of energy drink (we decided not to have a boost though!)

The sun had come out to illuminate all the rubbish strewn across the rec this morning.

Dave and JB had a good catch up whilst doing a picking loop of the park. Even being called legends by a passer by.

No amazing finds sadly apart from a pair of discarded goalie gloves. I guess they had conceded too many!!

Our litter pick ended up more of a Supermarket Sweep this evening, as we found two trollies at the top of the patb we were clearing. We had a designated rubbish trolley and a recycling trolley, which we did manage to fill in a surprisingly short time.

We doubled the good deed by delivering the trollies back to their homes at the end of the pick.

Thanks to Katie, Dave and Sinéad for suffering through my artistic vision to get some photos for our Portsmouth 100 launch - details to be released soon!

Unfortunately, our planned warm-up in Costa was scuppered when we arrived to find them closed due to "an unexpected maintenance issue" (it involved a lot of mopping), so we instead sampled some delights at the local McDonalds. Dave would not recommend the donut crumble latte, though.

Great work by everyone who took part in the January Bingo. Hopefully you felt inspired to do good and get fit this January!

Everyone that has submitted so far had completed at least one full line with most people finishing the full challenge.

If you still have any photos to submit, please email jen@goodgym.org so I can get them uploaded.

We happily donated some essentials for Ukranians who are facing such harsh conditions.
