A Scythe for Sore Weeds

Wednesday 6th August

Written by Catherine

Two women went to mow, went to mow a meadow. 🌾

GoodGymers were learning new skills and improving the environment on today's task. We were helping to maintain the community orchard, which had become very overgrown with nettles and weeds. We got to use the scythe to clear the tall nettles - what fun and a good workout. It was hot going, but we made great progress clearing two areas around the notice board and the bug hotel ready for local children to bring it back to life. 🪲

Fun in the (almost) sun at Fulbourn Park Run

Saturday 26th July

Written by Harriet Prior

Two goodGymers helped out at Fulbourn Hospital Park Run today. We had a lovely morning for it, with the rain staying away and a bit of blue sky too. Well done to Caroline for doing such a great marshalling and cheering runners along. I was the volunteer coordinator for this week, so really appreciated Caroline's support. 153 brilliant runners and walkers made their valiant way around the 4-lap course.

Looking forward to the next one!

Running tour of Cambridge

Tuesday 22nd July

Written by Catherine

We took in all the sights on our group run this evening!

4 GoodGymers met for a friendly social run around the city, taking advantage of the quieter streets during the summer break. We started by the river, headed along The Backs, pausing for a picture with the famous King's College Chapel, and came back into town past the Mathematical Bridge. Never missing an opportunity, we even put up a few posters to spread the GoodGym word.

Good run, good sights and good company. GoodGym all round šŸ™Œ
