Making a splash at the Lido

Portsmouth Report written by Katie Carew-Robinson (she/her)

We'll need a li-down after all our hard work

On a hot and humid night we completed our longest run to a task so far - 4ish km each way. By the time you count the walking around at the task site it added up to a total distance of almost 10km. Well done team!

A big Portsmouth welcome to GoodGym for Jason, hope you enjoyed your first task.

This evening, Mel, Maura and Amanda led an advance party and got to the Lido before us. We were met by Sabrina who looks after the venue and was extremely grateful for any help we could give. We split into a watering team and a sanding team - all very appropriate for our seaside location. The water team transported cans of water to give the parched plants a good drink - there were a lot of plants! The sanding team got to work on the old paint of the Blue Lagoon ready for it to be given a new coat of paint. Most of the sand team ended up with blue hands to prove they'd been working hard. The volunteers who are at the site regularly were very thankful for our help. If you want to know more about the Lido, check out their website, there are even some pictures there from way back when which are fantastic - the diving board was epic!

The lure of the pool was too much for Michelle who jumped in - all for the big camera shot which my photography skills were not up to (sorry!). And Amanda and Andria stayed for a post-task swim - how many lengths did you do ladies?

We are back to the Lido again on the 25th July and 15th August (I will be listing that one on the website soon).

Next week it's our 10th Wednesday night group run! We have a shorter run to the foodbank, if you want to bring a couple of tins with you as donations they would be more than happy to accept them - one in each hand will give your arms a bit of a workout on the way down too. Our planned social afterwards will still be going ahead too whatever happens in the World Cup! We have been given permission to use the TV in our room to watch the 2nd half of the match if we want to.

Footfalls not footballs but at least Buckland's no longer Messi!

Portsmouth Report written by Katie Carew-Robinson (she/her)

Strava Strops, Olympic Efforts and Unicorns!

Wow, well that was the hottest run yet!

A big welcome to our new recruits, Michelle and Katy - both of whom got stuck into the task and the time trial afterwards - what an introduction to GoodGym!

We had a relatively short run to Buckland Community Centre tonight where we were put to work in various places around the centre. Angela and Mel made the corridors smell all orangey as they cleaned the skirting with some strong smelling products. The rest of the indoor team (where it was hotter than outside!) sorted out the charity shop area which looked much more appealing once they'd finished. The outdoor team swept the front clear of broken bits of plastic and cigarette butts then went round to the garden and did some more sweeping and weeding. It all looked a lot better after it had been GoodGym-ed!

After finishing our task with many thank yous from the reception staff at the centre we headed off to Kingston Rec for our GGOlympics 1km time trial and crazy photo shoot. After some Strava updates and restarts I think it was mostly recorded. If you need to add yourself to my activity the link is here. Thanks to Jo for the action shots - you can see them all on our Facebook page. I think we did a pretty good job of the human GG logo :)

Next week we have a slightly longer run up to Hilsea Lido. Sign up here. Maura and Mel are going to set off at 6:20 so if you are worried about your speed you are welcome to head out with them. Just make sure you've signed in at the centre first.

Also don't forget our social on 11th July and the community missions on 21st July: morning and afternoon.

Happy running everyone!

Katie
