Wow, what an unbelievable turnout this evening and only one runner short of our all time record!

A big welcome to 3 new runners in Abbie, Libby and Emily, I hope you enjoyed your 1st GoodGym experience.

Some milestones this week with Emily on her 10th good deed, Lizzie and Jen were on their 25th good deeds.

Simon kindly volunteered to be back runner.

This week's task was our quarterly visit to Eaton Park, a 3km each-way run. The task this week was to clean the gates, weed a small flower bed near the fish lake and weed a very large flower bed next to the boating lake.

Michelle was in the lime light this week. Firstly, her and Helen did a Mission straight before this run, which is amazing. Then she had these awesome light attachments for her trainers and glow in the dark trousers (see the photos when the flash is on) that had some interestingly positioned arrows on them. She then placed her hand in doggy poo...

Once we blitzed the jobs, there was enough time to have a little stop in the play area... I've never seen Michelle run so fast so she could get their 1st. After 5 minutes of being kids again and waiting for Bill to finish playing on the climbing frame (goes to show at 69 you can still have fun) we headed back to The Forum for a stretch, which was nicely followed by a trip to the pub.

Great job everyone and our best turnout in the winter months.

Next week we're visiting Sprowston Community Hub.
