The Cherry On Top

Wednesday 11th March 2020

Written by Bournemouth runner

After an amazing run of having over 10 runners at each group run for what seems like a year...tonight we dipped below that but we made up for it with bundles of energy and enthusiasm!

We didn't scare off Mo last week so he was back to get another taste of the good life, great to have you along Mo! Keep coming back!

We also had Abi and Roshana back after ages away...we missed you tow, don't leave it so long this time ; - )

Super trusty and reliable Daryl, Phil, Karen, Charlotte and Hannah brought our lovely group to 9 and off we set towards the back of Bournemouth Station to hunt down some letter boxes.

Our route took us up some new roads for some of the gang so it was nice to do a little Bournemouth back road tourism. We started the flyering where we new we would get success and then slowly veered off to new areas, almost ending up at Karen's place for a cup of tea!!

With time running out we made the decision to make our way back to the start point...trying to avoid main roads and as a result adding maybe 500m to our route....that's nothing for some...especially** Karen** and Charlotte who rocked out 10 miles at the very hilly Larmer Tree Races this Saturday. Amazing effort....Charlotte even managed spin class the morning after....might need to find out what the Bourtons are having in their tea!?

We got back safe and sound and although we didn't take many photos this week....we promise we had a great time! Just too busy with lots of flyers to deliver!!!

Thank you Hannah for back marking again for us! Much appreciated!!

Next week we're doing a different flyer for the Cherry Tree nursery so come along and help us out!

Have a great week everyone!

Two Good

Tuesday 18th August 2020

Written by Bournemouth runner

The lovely people at the Cherry Tree Nursery needed us to help spread the word about a fundraising event they are having in September.

We were due to do a flyer drop for them the week the pandemic hit back in March, so it felt great to be able to get this done under much more positive circumstances!

We welcomed Nathalie to her first GoodGym Bournemouth experience and it’s like she always been one of us!!

We set off on a semi plod to the start of where we were going to start our synchronised frog hopping...split up into two groups, one on one side of the road and the other on the other side and off we went!

Hannah was showing a bit more of her baby bump which was lovely to see!

Grace was back and we’re going to our best to attach ourselves to her leg so it’ll be really hard for her to leave us again....we’ll have to set up a rota for this.

Caprice took it on to be the photographer and did a great job and in about 25mins we had managed to deliver all the flyers!!

So not being content with doing one good thing we did a litter pick of Kings Park.

Dirty undies and human faeces looked to be top of the gross list and on top of the whaaaaaaaaat? list was a massive knife....I hope it was used to cut mint for mojitos?

Great photo showing Laura and Daryl’s faces upon the find.

Next week Daryl has set up a litter pick on the Wednesday evening so check it out.

And we’re sorting out another visit to the Dorset Children’s Foundation storage unit to do some sorting on a Saturday morning too, so keep an eye on the website!!

So nice to see everyone again. We can’t leave it so long this time.

Take care everyone!
