Tom Laidler has done their first good deed with GoodGym.

Tom is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

I bet that you look good on playground floor

13 GoodGymmers ran 5 km to move and distribute wood chip at Heeley City Farm

A chilly, but dry evening greeted our team for our latest group run. We decided best not to hang around and use the run to our task as the warm up.

Warmed up by the time we arrived, the planning had gone like clockwork and the secret location of the garden tools was revealed. Unfortunately the task owner was unable to attend tonight, so alternative plans were made.

The task

It was very simple, but challenging. A huge pile of wood chip needed transporting from the road next to the farm and placing in the children's play area ready for the Christmas hoards expected at the farm. We quickly handed out shovels and barrows and got to work. The hill tried its best to ruin the morale of the team, but our super positive Goodgymers saw it as a brilliant training aid.

Fitness session

Once we had completely smashed the task it was time to use the hill for some shuttle runs. Last week we focused on strength, so this week we got the hearts and lungs working with some 90% - max efforts. What a great effort from everybody.

We then headed back to base for stretching and back slapping.

Great work gang!

Next week we are meeting for our final group run before Christmas followed by a few shandies in the pub around the corner. Sign up here
