Running, volunteering, crime-fighting, this GoodGym team had it all today!

Our monthly community mission at Nunsmoor Park started with a bit of drama this morning with a few of our runners doubling up as superheroes as they gave chase to a few would-be thieves in Nunsmoor Park. It was all a bit of a misunderstanding but it's good to know that we can move quickly when we have to!

This monthly mission teaming up Nunsmoor Park and The Bike Garden gives us the chance to get involved in a different physical task each month with today's tasks focusing on clearing a huge overgrown area at the edge of the park. Much raking, chopping and litter-picking went on and we even managed to get Dan into a wheelbarrow for comedy gold. A great morning ending with great biscuits and a top start to the Bank Holiday weekend.

Thanks everyone for so many laughs. What goes on at GoodGym stays at GoodGym. Tanya you're safe.
