The GoodGym crew gathered for a run and fitness session on Tuesday. After a quick briefing, we ran to the pier to warm up with a game of Captain’s Coming. It was a ship-shape start to the evening, with everyone running from port to starboard, and climbing the rigging. Once we’d got our sea legs sorted, it was time to set sail and run to the Brighton i360. The weather was chilly, but spirits were high as we took in the fresh air and the stunning seaside views.

At the i360, the fitness fun began. Everyone worked hard on step ups, press ups, squats, sprints and burpees (a real jump in difficulty). Everyone powered through with that classic GoodGym determination. By the end, we were all planked out and ready for the cool-down. Thank you to Pippa for leading this fitness session, and a warm welcome to Phil who arrived for his first session already wearing a GG t-shirt!

We’ll be hammering out another session at Brighton Community Workshop next week!

6 intrepid goodgymmers got their running shoes on for a wet Preston Park Parkrun and our final social Parkrun of the year.

As a reward for making it through the rain we had special Goodgym gingerbread men to celebrate and then we all went for a brunch together in Cafe Rust.

After brunch we said our Christmas farewells with the promise of lots more social runs in 2025!

Another Mass gathering of GoodGym-ers yesterday!

We went the S. Andrew Church in Hove to help John with a deep cleaning of the church before the busy festive time. We welcomed Ruth with an exiting hoovering task, while most others got themselves busy with dusting off and waxing on the benches.

We could not stop Ben’s excitement with the that swiffer duster kit 😊.

It was great to see all GoodGym-ers for this last group-led sessions of 2024 in full xmas action.

2024 – What an year it was for GoodGym Brighton!

614 Good Deeds so far, and more than 6,500 km run by 75 GoodGym-ers! And, it’s not over yet.

Why don’t you join us on Saturday’s community mission at Burning the Clock and for our Social ParkRun in Preston Park!

We feel ready to welcome the 2025 GoodGym January Challenge!

Meanwhile, Merry Xmas everyone!

CONFORT & JOY S. Andrew Church warmly invites you to come and celebrate Christmas/

Today 4 GoodGymers braved the December gloom to bring a bit of Christmas cheer to our Tuesday with a festive training session ✨️

After a jog along the seafront (interspersed with a spot of sprinting) we reached Brighton bandstand, the atmospheric setting for our winter workout. Pippa took us from Nakatomi Plaza to the North Pole, with a selection of exercises inspired by iconic Christmas films 🤩 When the group looked suitably exhausted, we finished with a fun game of 'Pass the Rudolph nose'- while holding a plank 😈

With our muscles suitably challenged, we jogged, sprinted, and hopscotch-ed back along the seafront, pausing only to test our balance with a Christmas Tree pose 🎄

Thanks folks for coming along and sleighing the workout! 🎅
