Ed came from further (a)Field

Norwich Report written by Steven Hitcham

There were some GoodGym visitors this week. Firstly, the one and only Ed Field, one of the senior managers from the GG Central in London joined us. Kristina was visiting Norwich from Manchester and then baby Jasper met us at the task, with Sam of course who was getting good deed withdrawal symptoms.

Kristina was also doing her 1st GoodGym deed along with Kate so a big welcome to both of you.

A thanks to Katy and Lizzy for being backrunners this week.

Well done to Kevin B and Sarah who have now completed their 10th GoodGym deeds!

We had our longest run tonight (just a little matter of 12km in total!) so it was incredible that 31 people came out in attendance.

Considering the distance we actually had one of our quickest ever speeds on the way there, it was very impressive.

Sally and her team greeted us with an array of drinks and fruit, which was very kind of them.

We had half an hour to get as much done as we could and this included turning over the compost, clearing the overgrown path, painting the fence and weeding the gravel area. Even I contributed when Sally asked if she could have a strong man for 5 minutes... no pun intended! I helped saw through some old fence which had a tree growing through it that needed to be preserved.

It was such a beautiful evening for it with the sunset over the buildings in the background.

Everyone did a great job and got loads done, the team from the community garden were clearly overjoyed with the hard work everyone had put in.

It was then time for the grueling trip back that started with about half a mile up hill! Everyone gritted and got through it, even the last uphill slog up Earlham Road.

Luckily Katy and Bill provided some goodies left over from Bill's 70th birthday for people to refuel once we got back to The Forum.

Check out the Group Run page to sign up to next week's run when we do a litter pick for Train Wood on Marriotts Way.

Abbie is part of a crowd that's making a huge noise. Abbie has been cheered by 25 people - that's a round of applause just on their own. We hope they keep it up.

Eggain, we didn't yolk around & made those hampers chocca

Norwich Report written by Steven Hitcham

Tonight's task involved a 9km round trip to Break Charity to pack some Easter Fundraising Hampers. A big thanks to Dave Tuthill for helping organise this one.

No new runners or milestones this week but plenty of GoodGymers either did the Ringland or Cambridge Half Marathons the day before with Brad and Michelle still coming out this evening. Both also got Half Marathon PB's round of applause.

Cheska was backrunner this week and Michelle on photo duties.

After the warm up inside The Forum, which caused mixed opinions ;-) as not everyone was keen on frog jumps and bear crawls we set off on our way.

On arrival a few GoodGymers met us there plus we picked Sophie up halfway. All of the items were set out along tables so we could get a production line on the go. One group were laying hay in the baskets, then they went along the line to have items added such as chocolate eggs (big and small), chocolate hens, bunny ears, a cuddly bunny (which Emily really wanted one of), tea towels, popcorn, a GoGoHare badge and Easter eggs.

We got 33-34 hampers packed in the time we were there. Each one will get sold for £80-£100. I think being able to nibble on some of the broken chocolate eggs helped us keep the tempo up.

It was then time to head back but it went really quickly after we were all chatting away to each other plus it was downhill most of the way back.

Next week we're visiting The Feed.
