Thank you so much to everyone who came along to cheer today for the amazing runners doing such an iconic achievement.

More importantly we celebrate all of the amazing goodgymmers who undertook the marathon, it is an incredible feat to start one let alone finish one and you should all be so proud of yourselves!

Bit shout-out to Bethan Critchley jumping in at Mile 12 as a supporter helping runners around the course! What a superstar you are!

I've already listed the cheer party for next year. You can sign up here who knows, if you enter the ballot for next year perhaps it'll be you we are cheering on ;)

I continued a one man mission to reduce the alkanet population at Loris community gardens, they must think some weird alkanet-based fairy keep emerging and filling their bins!

A successful solo mission tonight with a quick run as well before hand on tired legs still not fully recovered from the marathon!

Loss of weeding and planting and waving hello at the local dogs 😊

Lovely to be in Loris Gardens again.

Took a fork and went to work digging out a lot of the blue alkanet that had taken over some of the beds.

Also got to see a tawny mining bee (pictured) taking a break on one of the leaves. This is a solitary bee species that only emerges April to May time, so a good way of knowing that spring has sprung upon us.

A lovely time out in the Sun, capped off either side by a little run to try and get some fitness back!

A solo mission, I had a nice walk around the borough moving bits of rubbish off the ground and into the bin where they belong.

Despite the beautiful sun and sky it was a bitter day on Saturday, with an icy wind not stopping us from enjoying the beautiful buds of spring.

However this same budding means that Goodgym's old enemy thistles have begun to poke their head from above ground.

This is what we found ourselves tackling on Saturday, breaking the ground and pulling out the little rapscallions so that the crocuses and daffodils could continue to flourish!

Lovely to see Dipeeka, Rohan and Holly at the session, thank you so much for coming!
