Pruning of a shrub and a creeping ivy for Miss S (wk3)
For years, this lady took great pride in caring for her garden, but at 70 she is no longer able to manage it alone due to a recent arm injury and knee problems..

Before GoodGym I always lost motivation to stick at running or the gym but now I run two or three times a week.
Running with GoodGym is great because I get fit, do good and get to hang with a load of awesome people.
