Report written by Vicky Hearson (she/her)

Share the love

Tonight we started the session by sharing something that brought us joy today. We had lots of lovely ideas- hanging washing outside, waking up next to Barbara, daffodils, having leftovers for lunch .... nobody said coming to goodgym but i guess that was just a given!

We then set off to Clementhorpe Community Centre. As it was only 900m away Rich took a running group in a detour while others took the steady option with Vicky.

When we arrived the majority were tasked with scraping and washing walls. Others emptied and helped sort a cupboard and a select group disappeared into the loft! We discovered all sorts of random 'treasure' - a guitar with 4 strings, sunglasses, alcoholics anonymous resources....

By then time time was up we agreed putting 25 sweaty runners in a small enclosed space was not the most pleasant. It was so bad Chatlotte had yo leave with a headache!

We therefore decided to do fitness outside, led by James. He'd created a party conga games, complete with hats and creme egg prizes. We decided to have a wall sit off for the last three. Barbara, Max and Kit outsat everyone! Great work guys.

We were then back to the pub with Rich's slightly smaller group taking a different longer route.
