Everyone was looking Fit!... zmaurice

Saturday 5th April

Written by Emily

I marshalled at the second Fitzmaurice Park parkrun and everything went super smoothly. The core team have certainly put in a huge amount of effort to ensure this parkrun is a success. I marshalled at 'Disco Corner' which was just before the hairpin bend so I got a great view of the runners.

I'm sure this course will become a favourite among locals very quickly.

The Birch didn’t knock us off our Perch

Saturday 5th April

Written by Steven Hitcham

We visited Mousehold Heath again. A new task this time (before the Bracken pulling commences in the summer), which was pulling up self-seeded Birch trees amongst areas of the heath where they don't want then to be growing.

It sounds crazy but we must have pulled out well over 100 of them! They have been temporarily been replanted in another area of the heath before they find new homes.

At the briefing before the run we heard from East Anglian Children’s Hospice (EACH) who were talking about their work & were advertising their running/walking events coming up. Goodgymers here today Bobby, Rob R, Susanna & Roisin.

A Sign of the GoodGym Stars

Monday 31st March

Written by Steven Hitcham

We visited Wensum Park again to continue the work we started last week.

We finished clearing the 12 star sign flower beds. Some needed old roots digging out, lavender cut back, stones removing and some just a complete turnover of the soil.

They are now pretty much ready to be planted.

Well done everyone, we'll have to return later in the year to see how it has flourished over the summer.
