👋19 brilliant GoodGymmers met on a bank holiday Monday to round off the long weekend with a lovely group run 🌟

🙌 We were thrilled to welcome Lindsay to her first GoodGym session, and also to hear about people's exciting running adventures this weekend 👌

⛱️ We named, numbered and warmed up while disclosing our favourite beach activity. There were lots of sandcastle-builders and brave swimmers and also the odd ice cream-eater and person-burier 🍦

🥭 After a quick running warm up, we set off for Greenfields Garden. On arrival, we quickly set to work gathering plums, both from the tree and from the ground. A variety of instruments were available to do this, along with our bare (well, gloved) hands! Apparently, we picked over 57kg! Once that was done, we set to work gathering the rotten windfalls to be composted. Some of us also went hunting other produce, including courgettes/marrows (if anyone can confirm at what point a courgette becomes a marrow, that would be greatly appreciated) and some interesting (yet unidentified) squash/marrow mystery veg 🥒

📸 Once the turning composter had been turned, we posed for our highly choreographed mirror image group photo (which has to be done at this task). We did some companionable birthday squats for Barbara's birthday tomorrow before a quick Mitch-inspired fitness session of never have I ever, featuring the fitness dice of doom/fun (depending on your perspective) 🎲

🥳 Before we knew it, it was time to head back to base to stretch off, cool down and enjoy some of Barbara's very yummily gooey birthday brownies 🍫

👍 Thank you everyone, and hopefully see you again soon 😁
