It's been 4 months since Goodgym launched in Norwich and this evening was the 1st time we've returned to a task we've done previously. That's a lot of different organisations we've helped over those months.

We welcomed new runner Justin tonight who was on his 1st GoodGym experience.

I have to mention Michelle's light up shoes and Catherine's light up waist belt... I need to become trendier and get some of these cool accessories. Oh and Bill's new headtorch was pretty flash!

It was a nice short run, about half a mile each way.

Alan met us again at the start of Marriott's Way and the team, in their headtorches, got into small groups and tackled the public walkway.

The last time we came here it was light so was a little more challenging finding litter in these conditions but there was a few bags full by the end of it... plus a few parts of a bicycle.

Everyone regrouped about 35 minutes later, quick group photo then off we went.

I think I missed a turning on the way back as we happened to stumble across Grapes Hill ;-)

After tackling that beast we finished up with a 10-minute fitness session outside The Forum.

... And then it was time for the Norwich Beer Festival. FYI, Rob is hilarious after a couple of drinks - I'm looking forward to the little GoodGym trip to Prague & Krakow in December hahaha

Next week's run is going to be a halloween fancy dress for those that wish to dress up.
