This evening we gave the task a miss due to the cold weather and had a steady walk and run around the Jewellery Quarter. Watching out for the ice and slippy spots, we headed out for a 5km run and ending back at 1000 Trades for a cool down and warm up inside!

We had a lovely time delivering leaflets to support a community event in Stirchley. Our wonderful Amy is now on the comittee for Stirchley Community Market, volunteering her time to organise the market. It is on the 7th December and you can sign up to volunteer!

Special well done to Eve and Liam who ran around 5k to get to the task!

We did several streets, Amy and Chris did loads of businesses too. Afterwards we all went to the pub for well deserved drinks!

Yep GoodGym Sutton Coldfield starts up this Wednesday evening, therefore we thought we'd get the ball rolling by volunteering at the Sutton Park Parkrun!

Rauul did the tail walker role and Jonny marshalled at the 4.5k point.

What a lovely morning it was with runners of all ages, shapes and sizes taking part, which really shows what running is about. We also had plenty of walkers and several dogs joining the party!

Rauul took a few photos at the end and as you can see his special GG Tshirt shows the amazing challenge he is doing what is to run 2024 miles in 2024 for Breast Cancer.

What a great morning and we'll be back with another GG takeover at Sutton Park in January :)

Today's Community Mission down at Hill Hook involved digging out hogweed and dock, so instead of Hogwarts we sort of 'went to Hogweed'!

Yep there was plenty to dig out, but the overnight rain certainly made it a little easier!

Jonny biked 6 miles to the Community Mission and Charlotte and her dad also helped out at what turned into a nice sunny morning :)

On a rather mild October night it was great to welcome Rob to GoodGym for the first time. Rob was one of the walkers, so we decided to all walk together the 1.2k to the canal to complete our litter pick.

Before we had hardly started the litter pick Eve found her green drinks bottle she'd lost when cycling along the cobbles on the canal at the weekend! As you can see she was pretty pleased to find it!

That was a great start to the task. We followed this up by clearing plenty of litter along the walls of the canal.

Once done, Rob walked back to catch his bus, whilst Eve, James and Jonny did a 4k run along the canal, through Millenium Point and up the hills back through the city centre.,

Tonight on a previously forecast dry evening we were greeted with great weather for ducks!

We welcomed Hugh for the first time who as you can see put a shift in on our litter pick. We even found a brush on our rounds.

After a good litter pick Morwenna and Jonny did a 4k run and it even stopped raining for us! Hooray!
