A few GoodGym members came together for a second time in a week to help the East Finchley playground project with its, small vegetable patch. Last week we cleared weeds and roots. This week we turned over the soil for planting. Most of us gathered at the Phoenix Cinema to warm up and chat. Introducing ourselves and our favourite colour . Green seemed dominant. Appropriate for a night of gardening. We did a small run, including some power skipping before reaching the green space. We set to work turning over the soil with folks and spades.
When complete, all of us ran back for a warm down, and some refreshments.
Thanks for coming running and doing some good.

A magnificent seven, Goodgym Members came together at the Phoenix Cinema to help Martin Primary School in East Finchley. Most people met at the cinema to chat and warm up. We set off, on a cool, cloudless evening, , at a slow pace along the High Street . We met Kirsten and Cloud before joining up with our host John at the school. He provided us with the tools to spread the woodchip over the paths inside the forest school.
Goodgym Barnet loves this mission!
After the mission Cloud took us through some Fartlek training in the school field. This involved simple jogging in One Direction and various levels of sprint back before repeating over four minute period.
We then jogged back to the cinema for a warm down and refreshments.
Thanks for coming running and doing some good.
Happy Valentine’s Day!

We set off from the Phoenix Cinema, five of us on a mission! These unsung heroes, Kirsten, Rachel, Beattie, Moya and me Antonio braved the elements and ran all the way to Friary Park, where we met Cloud and Niki. Together, with our head torches, we swept through the park with a fine tooth comb, finding all manner of litter to add to our rubbish bag, sweeping it clean and leaving the park a joy to behold... this will undoubtedly be more noticeable at sunrise. There were even some crocuses peeping out, so we trod carefully with our head torches. All in all a job well done. But the journey was only completed when we ran back to the Phoenix for a reviving hot cup of tea. Well done everyone!

A few Goodgym members came together for our first group run of the year on one of the coldest days so far. We gathered in the warm, welcoming Phoenix Cinema to chat. As is traditional, we number up, selected a back marker ( why is it always cloud ?) and stated some of the highlights of our New Year. We warmed up with some slow, and then quick punching in a squatting position. (Great way to get the blood pumping!) we then set out into the evening to meet up with Kirsten. who was running late. We did a 5 km circuit, stopping every so often to do leg and arm exercises. Unfortunately, our scheduled good deed had to be cancelled because of ice, but we managed to grab a few leaflets to promote the Phoenix cinema. We proceeded to deliver them on a nearby road, allowing Louise to deliver to a famous musician living near Highgate Woods. On our eventual return, we warm down with some stretches, and some of us went for some refreshments. Thanks for coming running, being resilient and doing good!

Last night we were making 8 beds for the night shelter guests at the American International Church on Tottenham Court Road .
We had some minor issue dealing with a table collapse to get to the bedding but were able to get that sorted and get to all the pillows, duvets and sheets needed to make the beds for the guests and make an attempt at making bedding!
Huge congratulations to Alison on hitting your 300th Good Deed last night, a fantastic achievement!
Also congratulations to Caitlin for recently hitting 50 good deeds and earning your black t-shirt.
Great to welcome new member Narinder to your first Group Run!
We were so speedy we had a chance to leaflet properties on the way back to The Living Center. South of the Euston Road we distributed leaflets for Kentish Town veg box near their pick up point at The Story Garden.
We will be back at the American International Church on the 1st and 8th Feb!
