The first GG social distancing session in Bath Bath!

Bath Report written by Sam Ollason

To keep fit as a community in these difficult social distancing times, GoodGym Bath hosted a virtual fitness session using Zoom. In total we had 9 runners exercising together and it was great fun!

We used the letters for 'GOODGYM BATH' using the poster attached to guide our workout. In fact, we were feeling ambitious so we actually did the 'BATH' part twice. The hardest part for me was the burpees and then the 45 second high knees (and then doing them again!). I was sore this morning!

Please let us know if you have any feedback or suggestions - we want to keep improving it for you!

Special thanks to Emily for remembering to keep count - I kept on forgetting!

Now more than ever we need to keep together as a community to help motivate each other to take care of our physical and mental health, so thanks to those of you who joined in to make this a success.

We will be running this at the same time next week. Routine to be confirmed but it will be using body weight, it will include lots of cardio and it will be about 35 minutes in duration. Hope to see you there.

See you tomorrow at the GG virtual pub quiz and next Tuesday for the next fitness session!

We'ed deaf-initely love to do more gardening!

Bath Report written by Sam Ollason

GoodGym Bath ran out to Twerton to do do some gardening tasks in the grounds of Action on Hearing Loss. We weeded, cleaned moss and swept up leaves to keep the pathways safe and tidy. This is one of our longer runs and we were all worn out by the time we got back to the leisure centre!

GG news

When we met at the leisure centre I shared the latest GoodGym news: * We have lots of exciting runs coming up in the next few weeks and we will start doing more outdoor tasks once the clocks go forward. * This weekend is the Bath Half and there will be a GG cheer squad somewhere around the route. Keep an eye in the GG Bath WhatsApp chat for more information (ask me if you would like to be added).

On with the task!

We ran through town and along Lower Bristol Road out to the task. Action on Hearing Loss is a shared living space for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. Some residents also have sight impediments. We regularly go and help Evan, who looks after the grounds there, to maintain the outdoor spaces. Last night we mainly worked in the space towards the back of the grounds. We weeded and cleared out a flower bed that is maintained by the residents, getting it ready for spring planting. We also cleared the steps and the walkway to one of the entrances to the car park.

Overall we filled up a large wheelbarrow full of garden waste which was a great achievement for the group of us in just over half an hour. We stopped to take a picture by the lion and then we headed home.

Thanks

Thanks to Rachel and Emily for backmarking for us and thanks to Evan and his team for hosting us for the evening. We were really pleased with what we achieved and we shall return!

Painting the Wendy House

Bath Report written by Sam Ollason

As the nights are starting to get lighter, GoodGym Bath ran to Peter Pan Pre-School in Lower Weston to paint one of their sheds and sweep up the children's play area. Afterwards we headed to The Stable for some pizza and cider. What a fantastic Tuesday evening!

Welcome, Emilie!

We welcomed Emilie to her first run with GoodGym Bath. Thanks for coming and helping us out and we hope to see you again soon!

On with the task

Before Christmas we helped out at the school by spreading sand over the astroturf in the children's play area. We were delighted to be invited to return last night to continue developing the outside space. To make sure we got everything done in time we split into small teams.

The school has a shed in their outside area that the children use to play games in. Some of the runners bundled themselves into the shed and took responsibility for painting the interior. They managed to paint all four walls and the roof which was brilliant.

Another group of runners painted the outside face, the door and the side of the shed a pale blue colour. A third group of GoodGymmers painted the gate and fence posts at the front of the school using another colour (egg shell blue?) to give them a fresh lease of life. After we had done with our painting we helped some of the other volunteers and parents helpers to sweep up leaves and stones that had made their way into the play area. There wern't many brooms available so some runners got creative with their choice of brushing device!

Overall it was a really successful evening. There were 3 different colours of paint involved and lots of enthusiastic volunteers and we managed to avoid any mixups!

Thanks

Thanks to the staff and volunteers at the school for hosting us and setting up the equipment. We had lots of fun and would really like to help you out again sometime soon! Thanks to Allie and Rachel for backmarking for us and thanks to Rachel for organising the social at The Stable afterwards. We plan on going on the first Tuesday of the month and it would be great if you could join us.
