Wild weeding and Amorous Amphibians

Thursday 17th February 2022

Written by Katie London

5 Goodgymers and a Gordon went into the woods one day. Johnhad a twisted fork, Katiehad her trustee overalls and Tracey had cycle rage. Rachel found a shoe, Gordon found frogspawn and Jen found she had amphibians in her thoughts a lot lately. We weeded the paths and made the wild area easier for the children to access.

Three Cheers Secret Seven

Wednesday 5th September 2018

Written by Katie Carew-Robinson (she/her)

A small but select group of runners met up for tonight's task. Before we headed off, Anna from Fratton Big Local popped in to drum up support to help set up the Fratton Family Festival.... it's now officially a community mission so you can sign up and add to your good deed tally!

Our magnificent seven ran south down Fratton Road and along to St Judes to be set to work on the school grounds. There were lots of notices telling new pupils where to meet and welcoming the new school year. Angela and Jo had their painting skills tested as they added blackboard paint to two areas inside the school. The rest of us weeded & flattened a small area inside the gate which is getting covered in slate this week before getting stuck into our favourite garden at the front of the school. Our good work lifting all the paving stones before the summer holiday had resulted in a green carpet of lemon balm... which all had to be pulled up. It was a nice task for the before and after photos!

Next week, we are heading to Kingston Rec for a litter pick, tree tie and a bit of TLC for the horses in the park (wooden ones!). There is also the chance to win the golden trainer in the time trial (it's not an award for the fastest, it's for the person who can pace themselves). This is also a great opportunity for new people to see what GoodGym is about as the run is SHORT! So bring along a friend.

Other dates for the diary: Parkrun takeover on Saturday 22nd September, post-Great South Run social on 21st October. We're back to St Judes again on 10th October and 28th November.

See you all again soon. Katie
