It's ladies night, and the feeling's Bright(on GoodGym)

Brighton Report written by Philippa (She/her)

Six runners met by the Victoria Statue, ready for a slog up the hill to Brighton Table Tennis Club ๐Ÿ“. This club provides inclusive table tennis lessons to local people, and Tuesday night is Ladies Night ๐Ÿ™Œ

After meeting some other GGers at the task, we were given instructions by the task owner and got to work ๐Ÿ’ช

Michelle and Thomas hoovered and mopped the reception area to make the place look welcoming for club members. Meanwhile, Sarah, Jane and Amro got stuck into the rampant weeds growing along the front of the building, while Ben, Sherman, and Rosie tidied up the shared garden over the road. We soon had the weeds pulled, the litter picked, and the borders looking braw โœจ๏ธ

If that wasn't enough, some brave souls jogged to the seafront for a fitness session combining hill sprints and a core workout ๐Ÿฅต Being by the sea on a sunny warm evening is one of the joys of being in Brighton, and we're looking forward to some lovely summer evenings with our GoodGym squad in the months ahead ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Keep an eye on our Instagram @ggbrighton for the latest reel crafted by Rosie, featuring some highlights from tonight's session. Looking forward to seeing you at an upcoming session soon!

Good Gym goes ga ga over baby clothes!

Brighton Report written by Juliet O'Brien

Summer is here, it's official! 13 Good Gym runners met to run and walk up the steep hill to Brighton Unemployed Familes Project. We celebrated Pippa's 50 good deeds in her absence and welcomed new member Michael . Oranganised by Sarah, this seemed a simple task at first but proved deceptive. Joy from Brighton Unemployed Families Project told us the project had been running for 42 years and provided practical support, education and much much more to local families. Recently one group of families had 13 different languages between them! It was a lovely large space that backed on to Tarner park. Our task was to sort the many donations of baby and children's clothes. First it was suggested we sort by type of clothing, then by gender but then mother-to-be Catherine suggested by age. This proved the winning formula and our team made good progress. We were amazed by the end of the session that we had sorted at least half of the clothes. And there were some very cute clothes including baby sleeping bags and an elf's costume! The other team had to take many boxes up to the top floor where there was more room and also were very successful in sorting the clothes, although I think by the end of it some of us were going a bit ga ga !

The Big Five-Hoe

Brighton Report written by Philippa (She/her)

Two years ago my new friend Rosemary invited me along to her nerdy running club. It wasn't really my thing...or so I thought. Here I am fifty tasks later, a fully subscribed GG nerd ๐Ÿค“

Seven of us met outside the Ladyboys' tent (#BrightonFestival) and ran up a brutal hill to Sloane Court. We had no idea the residents of this older adults housing scheme were such talented artists! They have been participating in the Artists' Open Houses Festival, and are displaying a fabulous range of paintings, drawings, and photographs: https://aoh.org.uk/house/may2023/drawing-together-sloane-court/

The team got stuck in with tidying up the gardens, to keep the place looking lush for the many art-hungry visitors. Weeds were pulled, borders were hoe'd, paths were swept, and bushes were trimmed.

A quick HIIT session in Queens Park helped tone our glutes ๐Ÿ‘ and stabilise our knees to support our running ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

After all that thirsty work, a few of us headed down to the Spiegeltent to soak up the festival ambience โœจ Our next session will be the trail run at Seven Sisters on Sunday 14th May- look forward to seeing you there!

April (power) Shower

Brighton Report written by Brighton runner

Well thank goodness our task this week was indoors! The April showers were definitely out in force!

We were welcomed by Jo from the Community Kitchen, a fantastic organisation who host cooking classes to fund Community events for those with Additional needs, dementia, or maybe inspiration to make their food budget go further. Highly recommend you check out their classes on their website.

Jo, ever organised, had a list of chores ready for us to tackle through out the kitchen including antibac-ing, cleaning and sorting! With so many of us in attendance, we got the lot done in no time!
