Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Sheffield runner
On a muggy evening, we started off our session with a quick warm up of lunges and squats led by Awesome Assistant Ash, while Kat briefed out the essentials and we welcomed new GoodGym runner Mohammad :)
We ran up past the Park Hill flats breaking off to have two teams: Team South Street Hill led by Kat and Team Steel City Steps led by Sarah and Steve. Special mention to Chris and Harris who smashed it up the steps in record time :) where we all regrouped before running the final leg to the task. We met Jackie from Park Community Action (PCA) at the Park Centre Library Entrance, who provided some tools to carry out our litter picking and weeding tasks of the PCA gardens and grounds and adjoining streets.
Clearing the dirt from this old bathhouse, with bags soon filled, Amazing Andrew provided extra bags for the GG team to continue our weeding and litter picking; and Sterling-work Sarah got stuck into clearing out the litter and debris from a soaked space of the grounds.
During the task Awesome Assistant Ash ran 3 short fitness sessions to provide an extra GG workout :) This involved a combination of sit ups, press ups, flutter kicks, planks and shuttle runs to work out GGrs cores, upper bodies and legs. Thanks to Cat and Darren to helping Ash find good work out spaces in the jungle grassed park.
With a nice jog down hill and some gentle stretches, we found our way to back at the Showroom for a good old drink.
