The GoodGym Sweat Fest!
8 GoodGymers made their way 5.0km to help the The Canal and River Trust in Birmingham.
- Tuesday, 23rd of July 2019
- Led by Jonny Carter
Tonight was rather hot as you can see from the pun and of course if you have been anywhere in England today you would know this!
We had Will from Lambeth joining us for tonight’s sweat fest, proudly wearing his black t-shirt.
We set off to the canal armed with our litter picks and bags, once on the canal we split into two groups, clearing a different area of the canal. There was quite a lot of rubbish tonight we really should have taken some more bags! Anyway the group still did a fantastic job, collecting two bags full of rubbish!
Once done we decided to bin (literally!) the time-trial with it being so hot, so it was a nice steady run via Millennium Point and through the city centre back to 1000 Trades. Once done the group resembled an understandably ‘sweaty mess’, and had a nice extra sweaty picture to finish off the night, though a few did go on for a few well deserved 'cold ones' after!
Next week we will be out doing good again, it would be great if you could join us sign up here.
