A big GoodGym welcome to our new recruits tonight: Dan, Amber, Mel, Daisy, Rebecca, Kirsty and Lucy! And welcome back to Ashley, Elly, Mark, Jo and Alison - very nice to see you again. Great to see a couple of the red GoodGym T-shirts on display too!

This evening the majority of the group opted for the shorter run to Buckland Community Centre where we were put to work clearing the yard outside and moving lots of bags of rubbish all the way around the building to the bins. The super team were so efficient that we were also asked to clean round the front of the building and in the car park. Buckland Community Centre now looks clean and tidy from the outside! Thank you Mark for back marking (and coming up with this week's pun) - good luck to you and Elly at the Clanfield Challenge on Sunday.

Jo and Dan clocked up some mileage doing a leaflet drop in Southsea for the Ickle Pickles scavenger hunt. (It's on Sunday 24th June if you fancy going along - info here)

We finished off with a few little circuits to improve core and glute strength...

Next week we're on a garden clearing task at St Judes Primary School. Sign up here, see you then!
