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!

GoodGym Brighton is gamed for the GoodGym January Challenge!

On a cold Tuesday evening just after new year 10 brave Goodgymers ran from the Queen Victoria statue to the top of the level, where we were met with a mountain of Xmas trees at one of the many local collection points

We split into 3 teams and each took an area around Lewes Road and Elm Grove. The mission? Collect Xmas trees that may be found left outside houses and on street corners and bring them down to the collection point.

After 30 mins we met back at the level, having collected trees and a very nice bed sheet which will be put to good use!

Only one team could win, and that was the fab 4 who covered Lewes Road.

The residents of Hanover can sleep better in their beds knowing their Xmas trees are safely collected and awaiting recycling.

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!
