Tonight was the only Wednesday of the year that we didn't do a task, as we celebrated with our summer social instead. We headed to Beckett Park for a game of rounders which everyone enjoyed and Alice led a game of tag...which was absolutely exhausting!! Joao, Alice & Billy were 'on' and did a good job, but eventually we wore them out!

We cancelled our picnic as rain was forecast (even though it didn't materialise), so we headed to the pub & ordered some very questionable pizza. Was it toast or was it pizza...who knew?!

Thanks for a great night all.

Last night was our summer social & so we ran up to Beckett Park to have some fun and games. We got into two teams 'Helen's Hillbillies' & 'Canada' to battle it out with some school sports day type activities! We competed in egg & spoon, 3 legged & sack races & then threw hoops, bean bags & it wouldn't be a summer social without a game of human hungry hippos!! Some highlights were Christian powering ahead in the sack race, Alice & Amy winning the 3 legged race (good team work girls) & Katie falling in the sack race (sorry Katie)! We finished off with a game of rounders and then the final results were in...it was a draw!!

After all the fun, we had a picnic to finish off with a lovely selection of savoury & sweet treats. Thanks all, what a great evening!

Welcome to newcomers Amy & Tracey & congratulations to Katie who has reached 100 good deeds! You're awesome :)

What a great night with the GoodGym Leeds gang! Last night, we met at Heart and ran up to Beckett Park, where we finally got to play a game of rounders. it was great fun and we definitely got better the more we played! Even though there were less people on Helen's team, they still won with 8 rounders over our 6.5...Well done guys! Everyone loved the game, so this is something we're going to do more of now the nights are lighter.
We finished off by running up to the Wetherspoons for a drink & some chips. Thanks for a great night all & welcome to an honorary member for the night, Jack.

This evening, 12 GoodGymers came together to do a quick clean at Heart before using the space for our second group sound bath.

I'd like to thank everyone for helping me out with my training to become a sound bath practitioner. For two group case studies, I've had a very willing group of GoodGym members as participants:)

The space isn't ideal as there was some distractions so I would need a quieter space next time.

Lovely to see Tav visiting from GoodGym Colchester & it was also good to see some weekenders join us on a Wednesday too.

We finished off with a search for a phone and a drink in the bar where we talked about Jubz's new car...I even got a guided tour!

Tonight 9 GoodGymers met at Heart & got to work cleaning the nursery space. We're a dab hand at this now, so we got finished quickly & headed out into the rainy night to do a local litter pick filling nine bags! After this, Helen took us on a 3.5K run where we stopped to admire the star constellations which are due to align on Friday. Fingers crossed for a clear night!

Welcome to newcomer Kimberley & well done on your first run. Welcome back to Lloyd & Brandon. We hope to see you all again soon.

What a great night we had last night for the GoodGym Leeds Christmas party. We had a whooping 22 people come to celebrate Christmas & it was really wonderful to see such a lovely group of people come together.

Firstly, we met at Heart to do a quick clean of the nursery space & then everyone settled down in the nursery and I ran a sound bath for the group. I've never seen the GoodGym Leeds gang so quiet!!! Everyone relaxed to some gentle sound meditation & I really appreciated so many people coming to let me practice on them. We'll do another one in the new year :)

We then headed to the Heart bar for food, drinks & a Christmas quiz. We were also very lucky to have a group of musicians come along to entertain us all! Well done to Katie, Katie, Rachel & Kat's team who won the quiz with a fabulous 10/10 (I'll need to make it harder next year)!

It was also an opportunity to thank our wonderful task force, Helen, Jubz, Katie, Kat & Bryony (in her absence). We really appreciate everything you do for GoodGym Leeds, so thank you for everything you have done for the group this year.

Welcome to newcomer Finn & welcome back to Pik & Sudharsan who joined us for the second time. We hope to see you again soon.

Thanks all for a wonderful evening & Merry Christmas!
