This week we welcomed two new runners to the team, Abimbola and Tadiwa took their first steps in what will hopefully be a long GoodGym journey!

We also celebrated Ruthbecoming the latest member of the 50 task club, well done! 🎉

With our parcel force assembled we tackled the hill climb up to the LDS church where a festive wrap battle awaited us. We were tasked with wrapping up shoe boxes to make festive care packages for refugees and asylum seekers recently arrived in the local area and who don't have much at all to call their own.

With the boxes all wrapped, filled with essential supplies and labeled for men women or children, we got ourselves moving again with fun shuttle runs to steal chocolates from the opposing team, followed by a calming full body stretch out, and then the gently jog back down the hill.

Our newbies did superbly, so well done Abi and Tadiwa, we hope to see you again very soon!

That's a wrap!
