Well not the Monday we had plan. Due to unseen circumstances our Goodgym task was unfortunately canceled. Hey, these things happen but it didn't stop us having a blast by the lake. After our warm up we headed out towards Danson Park with cones on board for some fitness fun and games. Boy, its so good to have the lighter nights back.

Boy, its so good to have the lighter nights back

On arrival at Danson Park it was game and maybe a little pain time :-) I was determined to work all muscle groups tonight, then finish it off with some healthy competition between everyone. All that was needed to fore fill this goal was a few cones and some sponge dice. Heres the list of what was worked last night.

  • Hearts
  • Lungs
  • Legs
  • Butts
  • Core
  • Back
  • Chest
  • Arms
  • Shoulders
  • Mental
  • and jaw muscles from all the moaning :-)

Like i said previously, the evening was going to be finished off with some fun competition. The drill in question was called "The Climb". Basically everyone starts on the line. The fast lap is one squat jump, run twenty metres and back within 45 seconds. If you complete it with 45 seconds you get till that time finishes before round two to recover. The next round is two squat jumps with a twenty metre run and back. The idea is to increase the squat jumps each time and still complete the drill within the 45 seconds. The winner is the last man standing. In this case i want to congratulate Anthony a visitor from Goodgym Westminster for taking the title with sixteen squat jumps. Bexley had a great effort from Cheryl coming in second with Fifteen squat jumps. I must remember to ask them how those legs are feeling today......

With everyone feeling totally drain the vote was to take the shorter run back from the park to base camp Crooklog for our cool down and stretch session.

This weeks shout outs are to Susan, Caroline, Paul, Cheryl and Sarah who smashed the Brighton BM10K Sunday and still came and smashed it at our Goodgym session last night. Next week we also have another 50 Good Deed mile stone where Sarah will earn her black tee shirt. Well done. Until next week Goodgymers...........
