This weeks, Team GoodGym Bexley was back at Days Lane Primary School continuing our mission to give their fences a fresh new look before the children return in September.

After getting stuck in last week, there is something especially satisfying about returning to a task and being able to see the progress from one session to the next.

As ever, the evening was a great example of what GoodGym is all about: keeping active while doing something positive for the local community. Some of us walked there and back together, and while painting might not look like a workout at first glance, after plenty of squatting, reaching, bending, stretching and moving up and down the fence line, everyone had certainly earned their GoodGym credentials!

For anyone who wasn't quite so keen on picking up a paintbrush, there was also a spot of gardening to tackle, meaning there really was something for everyone to get involved with.

And the GoodGym good vibes continued thanks to Marianna, who very kindly baked cheesecake for everyone to share. It was totally delicious and after all that painting and gardening, it was the perfect way to round off another productive session.

Another evening of keeping fit, doing good and making our local area that little bit nicer, one fence panel at a time!

Six GoodGymers met at Sweet Fig Coffee Lounge this morning, ready to take a colourful message out into the local community. Our mission was to deliver postcards promoting Demelza’s Rainbow Run, helping spread the word about this brilliant fundraising event.

We had two young helpers along for the fun, plus Jay the dog, so our delivery team had plenty of energy and four-legged enthusiasm! Three of us had already clocked up local parkruns before meeting up, so there was certainly no shortage of miles in the legs.

With the sun shining, we headed out around the local streets, popping Rainbow Run postcards through letterboxes along the way. Our final stretch took us through The Goat Field (the local name for Holy Oak Tree Park) making for a lovely end to our route.

Then it was back to Sweet Fig for refreshing drinks and some sweet treats. Sam the owner always makes us feel so welcome.

A colourful morning all round!🌈🏃‍♀️🐕
