Wigwam wins

We’ll see which wigwam is still standing next week!

10 Goodgymers met at Jenno’s, Everard’s Meadows, to run to Millfield Primary School, taking the scenic route through Osier Nature Reserve, my everyday route when the kids are at school so there was zero chance of getting lost.

A popular task this eve we were well equipped with the school’s new tools and the contents of Dave and Mel’s boot, we quickly got stuck in with trimming the hedges a little and marking out the woodland path with the aim of creating a secret garden at the back of the school field for the children to enjoy whilst learning about nature and having fun.

Great to see Tommo back in action after his broken foot and hand, he fills us with inspiration after he still managed to win Beat the street (tapping beat box’s all around Leicester), covering 2640 miles on his bike earning 76,000 points! 3rd time he’s won.

Shout out to Sarah on her first GoodGym session, hope you enjoyed yourself and keep the running up you’re doing great. Was really good to hear Martin has knocked a good 2 minutes off his 5km time, after working hard for 6 weeks sticking to a plan, Weldone Martin.

After an hour or so the area was starting to take shape as you can see from the brilliant pics Mel, Nick and Ashley took, there was a bit of competition over who’s wigwam was the best, I liked the effort Stu made making a camouflaged seat.

Time was up and we all set off for the return run, with Stu still feeling competitive he tried to race me up the hill!

Weldone team fantastic efforts from everyone, making an excellent start to a project that once finished will really benefit the whole school for the kids to learn about nature in a fun way, I know we will have fun doing good whilst keeping fit.
