Sometimes, the weather has other plans.

The team hadn't quite bargained for the evening's biblical downpour, and with the forecast threatening more rain well beyond 8pm, it was decided that tonight's Together Trust leaflet drop would be postponed to another day. Even GoodGym can't deliver leaflets that have turned into papier-mâché! 📬➡️🫠

But what a turnout! Despite being thoroughly soaked, everyone arrived with determination, big smiles, and surprisingly high spirits. 💪😊 A quick catch-up and team updates were definitely drier than the streets.

Lucy was proudly showing off her brand-new GoodGym red t-shirt❤️, which received an immediate and rather comprehensive waterproofness test. Meanwhile, Gabriele joined for her very first session—welcome! It seems the weather likes to baptise new members with a proper GoodGym initiation. Thankfully, they also came dressed in red and took it all in good humour. There was also a pleasant surprise as Mandy joined the session, much to Hazel's delight.

The good news is that everyone's keen to return on another evening to get those Together Trust leaflets delivered ahead of Saturday's event. Rain: 1. GoodGym: To be continued...

During the chat, Mandy also mentioned that her allotment area could do with a helping hand, so watch this space for a future community mission involving less rain (hopefully) and more gardening.🌱🥕

It was another reminder that GoodGymers don't let the seasons dampen their enthusiasm—only occasionally their socks. 🧦😂
