What a great weekend the GoodGym Leeds crew just had!

We headed up to near Appletreewick in the Yorkshire Dale's for a night of camping.

Camping & Clueless: My lack of camping skills were on full display & along with a borrowed, very sad looking tent, we set up our pitch. Adam & Eva were the heroes of the hour as they'd luckily brought a spare that Alice and I could use. Thanks so much guys! We were warm & dry which somehow I doubt we would have been in the other one.

We then headed off for a 5 hour hike around the beautiful dales, the highlight being the waterfall at the Valley of Desolation, some ducklings & the Yorkshire Dales ice cream. Jason managed to get a squelchy boot but luckily we had no other incidents!

We then headed back for some food in Addingham and a camp fire with roasted marshmallows in the evening.

The next morning we packed up (I made a mess of that too) & headed for breakfast before setting off home. Thanks to Jason for his tea/coffee set up in the morning.

Thanks so much to Jubz for his organisation skills & his very thorough spreadsheet & for bringing the fire. You did a great job. And to Katie Lees for her map reading on the walk & to everyone else for their help during Tent Gate!!

Welcome back to Eva, it was great to have you along for the weekend :)

Helen was the superhero, cycling to & from the campsite and just casually throwing in an 8 mile run on Sunday morning for good measure! We're all in awe if you!

Thanks all, until next year...

That was the question Eb was asking this evening, providing some light entertainment! Tonight we had a new task at All Hallows Church where Rainbow Junction is held. We were tasked with levelling the ground, weeding and painting the gates. This was a big job and we'll have to go back to do more but we made a great start, helping to ensure the garden is safer for people who use it.

Welcome back to Eb tonight and congratulations to Kat for completing her 80th good deed!

...they kept saying it but we stopped believing them! Well done to the team for running 10.5K tonight up many, many hills for the Apperley Bridge Canter! Organised by Horsforth Harriers around the beautiful countryside of Apperley Bridge, it was a beautiful but tough route. I was so happy to catch up with Shannen near the end & we were so pleased to see the rest of the team at the end, thanks for cheering us on guys! Congratulations to everyone on finishing & for supporting 'Stand against MND'.

On the way to Bedford Fields tonight we finished our leafletting task for Unity Action Day. They are putting on a health & wellbeing event for young people this Monday, so this helped promote it. Good work team!

The Leeds gang had a great night at Bedford Fields yesterday.

We ran up via the ridge & did some leafleting (see the separate report) & then headed to Bedford Fields to clear a path of lots of sticks and brambles, while another group cleared the public path. A few of us managed a break to play on the swing which is hidden at the top of the garden (it's not all hard work).

Super Helen had to her wear her cape & mask to celebrate a whopping 202 good deeds...what a hero!! Well done Helen!

Jubz then took a group to the pub to see Man United get beat... while the rest of us took a slow run back to Heart.

Welcome to Rachel & Clarice, we hope to see you again soon.
