Last night saw a wonderful turnout of incredible GoodGymers - new and familiar (not old!) to help the High Lane Residents Association to clear a plot of land on the Middlewood Way.
The HLRA are planning to plant a beautiful display of sunflowers on the previously overgrown and bramble covered area.
We took a 2.5 km scenic but uphill run to meet David and his HLRA colleague at the location, before setting to work with some serious digging and wheelbarrowing.
Within no time, the area was bramble free and we were all ready for an easy downhill return.

A sunny Tuesday task for our task regulars - The newly named Stockport Post.
Our run began at our Life Leisure Cheadle base where we covered a sunny 2.5 km downhill run to our delivery point where we met another cheery recruit to help with our delivery!
We smashed through the task in no time, even enjoyed an extended walk to make the most of the sun before heading back on an uphill sprint to base!

Last night's GoodGym Stockport group run was a Suntastic delivery task for a local charity Independent Options.
They are offering a local free brunch club for the residents of Marbury Road estate and needed a hand to get the word out.
3 GoodGymers set off from base, with 3 meeting at the task point, ready for a chatty task and a good old catch up.

Back for its ninth year, the Great British Spring Clean is the nation’s biggest mass-action environmental campaign.
The Great British Spring Clean and Great Big School Clean 2024 takes place from 15 - 31 March, and you can pledge to pick up a bag of litter – or more.
Last year, the army of amazing #LitterHeroes pledged to pick more than 400,000 bags of litter.
Several times a year, GoodGym Stockport take part in Plogging group runs to help to keep our wonderful community free of litter and debris.
Our run began from Life Leisure Avondale, with 7 runners in tow, armed with litter pickers, gloves and bags! We ran a circular 7.5km route, covering Edgeley, Cale Green and finally Adswood.
We focused some of our attention on the area around a local school and received wonderful feedback from the Headteacher who appreciated our efforts to keep the area clean.
We even had BAGS of fun doing so!

To blow away the Christmas cobwebs, set 2024 off to a healthy start and clock up some miles for the January Challenge, GoodGym Stockport took on a chatty and chilly 5km social run.
We welcomed two fabulous first timers - Sally and Peter, who will hopefully be back for more sessions with us!
We took a 1 km warm up circuit to begin, before a circular social 5km run - catching up on recent goings on, resolutions and 2024 targets.

Our final group run of 2023 had to be a festive fancy dress to the Warwick Drive lights!
We set off from base, with Santa hats and tinsel galore, and our spirits high and a couple of wonderful newbies to the group!
We took an undulating and leisurely 4km to the bright lights of Warwick drive where we met more GoodGymers ready to join in the festivity.
The houses were decked with the finest Christmas lights and decorations, and it was a who's who of running clubs and cycling groups!
We took a pause take in the lights, sip mulled wine, hot vimto and munch on mine pies and Hannah's delicious cookies before dashing back to base.
