On a glorious sunny Saturday morning goodgym members in leicester took part volunteering at parkrun. We had Mel and Dave at watermead Martin at abbeypark and at Braunstone we had Amanda,Mark,Lis,Lisa,Paul,the two Jimmy's and big boss lady Sarah all making the world a big brighter place well done everyone.

5 Goodgymmers took part in litter picking their local areas during the month of May, collecting a full bag of rubbish each! This task is really rewarding and easy to fit into busy lives being able to do whenever Goodgymmers wish during the month, or choose to do when it's good weather.

Ian covered 2.6 miles with one huge bag around Western Park

Mel who is so close to 300 good deeds now collected in her local area.

Jimmy M walked 2.88 miles covering 2 of his local parks.

Tommo collected a bag in Braunstone park which is amazing considering his injuries at the moment, he should be super proud, he found all sorts, look forward to seeing you again at group sessions soon you will recover quickly.

I collected with the help of my 2 kids while it's half term, they loved it and my littlest can now get her Rainbows litter picking badge, which she's really excited about.

Weldone all super collective efforts.

A beautiful morning in sunny leicester where we had our usual amazing goodgym volunteers doing great things at watermead we had Jeanette and at Braunstone we has Amanda,Jimmy and Mark all helping out. Last but not least we had Abul and Martin at abbeypark for event no 7 great work everyone and enjoy the Bank Holiday.

Yet another amazing Saturday morning sunshine feeling of doing good by the goodgym community in Leicestershire. We had the brilliant Nick at melton who had a double celebration of 250 parkruns and 100 volunteering efforts that is an incredible achievement. At abbeypark we had the Amazing Abul as Run director for the first time Martin was also at Abbey. Jeanette was at watermead doing various tasks and at Braunstone we had Mark,Ian,Amanda and Sarah all helping out today was a special day Thank-you for making it happen goodgymers.

6 Goodgymmers met at B-inspired Food Share, todays task was to sort their food containers for Food Share to keep track of what stock they have available. The team got straight into it decanting many peas tins into crates and dating each can easy peasy then we realised there were over 1000 cans. We made a start on the itinerary and shall continue on our next visit, it was great to see the container the Goodgymmers had built a few months ago, hap-pea to see it was still standing.

You needed to be a strong pea to lift the crates in and out of the container, luckily we had strong peas in this pod. Jen did a fabulous job of firstly sweeping up all the glass from the car park and then litter picking the area, great work. We were like peas in a pod chatting about who was running over the weekend, Stu is an escapea traveling to Wales to retain his title on the trails, good luck Stu!

After the teams hard work just me and Steve ran the park, Martin had already ran from home and running back. Me and Steve had a lovely run chatting about when he ran London Marathon super fast quite a few years ago and I'm sure talking made him run faster, by the end I was legging it down the park thinking this was going to be a gentle one!

Weldone Everyone all round, hope we have given the peas a new leese of life being ready to be given out, see you all again soon.
