Tremendous Tom had to be elsewhere, so @GGSheff had a new run leader take charge for the evening. Super Sam, on his first ever time leading a GoodGym group run (training runs not included!).

18 intrepid Sheffielders took part in wholesome volunteering fun & games (okay, that's a stretch for some of the tasks involved - but everyone did Good for the Picture House and that's the important thing!)

A special welcome to Awesome Anna, who did her first GoodGym group activity. We hope to see you again very soon Anna!

We did a variety of tasks, which Nifty Nick at the Picture House kindly introduced. These included...

  • Painting (but not with the green paint!)

  • Scraping

  • Lifting, moving & carrying

  • Cobweb removing

We then ventured outside and headed for the park, whereupon everyone had to make sweet music with the dingly donglies (Yes!), before doing box jumps and then a 2 lap Indian Run - which was probably deemed the highlight by most. Unless you count Bodacious Bash and his Brilliant Burpees.

The Showroom bar beckoned, so we ran back, doing a couple of Speedy Sprints with a bit of friendly competition on the way. Innuendo bingo stretches were last on the menu.

Back to normal service next week when Terminator Tom returns.

Time to break out of third person writing...

Thanks for putting up with me, one and all!
