Tonight, facing the ice on the pavements, we started the January challenge. We met at Heart and then all started running together, before splitting into teams of two to deliver leaflets to the OWLS service users. Not all of the older people have access to email/Internet so they appreciate doing it the old fashioned way with a leaflet through their door.

Despite the ice, no falls were reported thank goodness.

Thanks to Helen for organising the routes. Good work team!

Last Sunday, 6 GoodGymers ran along the canal as part of the annual Christmas Cracker race. Well done all, there were some sore legs the next day!

Tonight was our Christmas party where we got to celebrate all we'd achieved this year & to have some fun! We met at a church hall to have pizza, sweet treats and play games including charades, silly games with cups & the cereal box game (I guess you had to be there)! We finished off with a quiz & celebrated GoodGym Leeds' numbers this year. We did a whopping 709 good deeds, helping 26 different, local organisations, had 12 socials including our first camping trip & we did 2 races (with 2 more to come in December). What a great time we've had doing it all! From members who have been here throughout, to new members who have become part of the team, thanks so much for making GoodGym Leeds so great!

Shall we do it all again in 2026?!

Thanks to Chloe & Rachael for running games tonight.

Happy Christmas everyone!

Tonight we had a moonlit run through Beckett Park up to the OWLS allotments to help them to tidy up for the winter.

It was very dark up at the allotments but we managed to get loads done by torch & moonlight! Jason, Christian & Freddie took wheelbarrows down to go and get woodchip whilst the rest of us weeded, layed membrane & then put the woodchip down.

Welcome to Freddie & Matthew tonight & welcome back to Katie who's back from her adventures.

Thanks for a great night all!

Seeing as though two of our members were in shorts tonight, we'll do well to remember that in future!! It was a freezing night & even though Lydia had 7 layers on, she still looked absolutely freezing! I hope everyone managed to warm up.

We ran across the ridge tonight & met Beth at The Chemic Tavern and litter picked around the area. When we could no longer feel our fingers and toes, we headed back.

Well done for coming out in this weather guys. Stay warm :)
