Nine fine goodgym runners braved the heat and the world cup frenzy to help the Phoenix cinema . The cinema acts as our meeting point every Tuesday so it was a pleasure to deliver leaflets to promote the up and coming films. It is one of the oldest continuously functioning, purpose built cinemas in the country. Saved from being demolished by a trust, it still preserves its original 1910 barrel vaulted ceiling, and in a later refurbishment Art deco panels. It became a trust in 1985 and does great work in the community as well as art house films. We gathered for a head count, a chat about biscuits and a warm up in cherry tree woods. Give a shout to Akthar on his first goodgym run and his love of merry land cookies! We played a quick game of ‘stick in the mud’ with the added consequences of press-ups and squats if you got caught. We set off into the sun and heat with Rebecca as our back marker (a good gym Olympian !) After delivering all our leaflets we headed back through the woods stopping occasionally for some core and breathing exercises. The days activity ended back at the Pheonix with a warm down stretch and high fives. Thank you for doing good!
