Hang onto your leaves -No sign of hurricane Maria in Worthing
On a calm and brightish (?! ) evening in Sunny Worthing 6 trusty GoodGym runners met at Spalshpoint Lesiure Centre for a (not so quick) catch up on weekly news and general chat. We almost forgot about the running and task ahead :)
It was lovely to welcome Sue (https://www.goodgym.org/runners/sue-c2e8c2a1-bcc6-48f6-ac03-ab9b55ab6a66) back proudly wearing her new GoodGym tee shirt with the additional super power of the the additional logo on the back. It looked so good that we ( well I ) all have t shirt envy now.
Brownies and fish and chips
The group headed off for a warm up around the pier and found a food theme going on. A group of girl brownies were enjoying a delightful dinner of fish and chips. What a typically lovely seaside scene that was!
Ranger of the lost park
Food forgotten it was time to arrive at the seafront Denton gardens for part 2 of the tidy up on the east bed just next to the mini golf. A warm welcome awaited us from our park ranger Keith who was , as ever , raring to get started and experience yet more 'pun fun'
Power ranger and his A team
Once again the team worked hard under the careful supervsion and wit and humour of Keith next to the golf . Gill managed to improvise another tool to work with. Sue was far from weedy pulling out some monsters ! Beth found a power ball to assist her ranging .Nick went crazy when he found an orange golf ball and Belinda was spotted warming up her bicep muscles in preparation for our Good Gym social next Monday by raising a discarded bottle of cider- organically sourced but not gluten free !
We didn't realise that we were making memories - we just knew we were having fun
The group headed off for a speed of light trip down memory lane revisiting and remembering previous tasks. There was anchor gardens ( not a dolphin to be seen ) Windsor lawns ( quite a royal feeling ) the residents garden ( the rockery and rolling task ) and Teville gate ( Now you see it soon you won't )
Fitness Spirit
With our new '' team buddy '' leader and GoodGym time traveller ,Beth, the runners did some great sprint efforts with every step working towards achieving their individual goals.
The stars were out
A lovely stretch and chat back at Splashpoint Leisure Centre completed another Monday night for GoodGym Worthing
Next week we will be finshing our task and run with a visit to The Egremont pub situated just near Splashpoint at 32 Brighton road , BN11 3ED . This will be an informal ,fun ( and possibly pun finder ) hour where we welcome any current , past or potential GoodGym members and non members and their friends.
Have a great week everyone
Julia :)
