We hit a new GoodGym Norwich turnout of 40 this evening!

1st Group Run of 2019 and what a start.

Lizzy J was completing her 10th good deed, Michelle was completing her 50th good deed and Catherine completed her 100th good deed last week when she visited her Coach - unbelievable achievement ladies.

6 new amazing runners joined us tonight in John, Angela, Sophie, Amy, Sarah and Oli.

Catherine was back runner and Sandra walk-leader.

A painting job was on the cards at Adat Yeshua, which is creating a new kitchen and food bank with one of their spare rooms.

Myself and the task owner weren't expecting so many people so on arrival I decided to split the group in 2. Half would paint while the other half had a fitness session and then they swapped over after 20 minutes. This could be a new tactic with so many people wanting to do good in Norwich.

For the fitness session we went over to Jenny Lind Park and it was split into Interval Pacing, Tag, Shuttle Relay and a Short Effort. It was good job we did this as the guys painting were smashing through and there was no way we'd fit 40 people in that room.

Sandra worked out what GoodGym is in Hebrew - check out the photo.

After both groups had a go at painting and completed a fitness session, we got together for a group photo and then headed to Chapelfield Gardens on the way back for a quick sprint session to top off a good all round running evening.

It was finished off with a good stretch at base and one of Darren's brownies to celebrate his successful London Marathon entry through the GoodGym ballot.

Remember we have a Group Run this Saturday as well as Monday - see details of all runs here.
