Let's get ready to rubble!
7 GoodGymers made their way 3.0km to help the NHS in Liverpool.

On a calm warm evening, eight Goodgym members came to Broadgreen Hospital to have a run and to do a bit of landscaping.
Once we located each other and met with Fiona, we did a quick warm up before running to Dovecot Park and back fitting in two miles.
Fiona explained the task and we set to building the planters, filling them with rubble and compost. Once the five planters were built, we spent some time figuring a layout. Squares? Diamonds? In the end they were in square diamond formation! ‘Wilf’, the aptly named veteran wheelbarrow squeaked its discomfort as it helped us move over a tonne of compost to the planters.
Meanwhile Pauline and Fiona made grass Swiss roll piles to tidy another section ready for work. After a test of the new outdoor gym enough exercise was had and there’ll be plenty more for us to do to help green up more recreational natural areas. Well done all for the difference made
