Frankly my dear, we do give a garden
30 GoodGymers made their way 5.3km to help the Heeley Development Trust in Sheffield.

First of all, welcome to Gill & Chris.
James reached his angelic 100 good deeds, wearing his literal & metaphoric wings with pride.
Rob surpassed 50 good deeds thanks to an earlier visit to his coach, while Dan reached his 50. They both wore their bow ties with style.
A total of 30 GoodGymmers made their way to help Heeley Development Trust with continuing to tidy up a triangle of green garden space which acts as a welcome area to Heeley for people coming up Myrtle Road.
We merrily litter picked, raked, pruned, weeded & gathered - head torches lighting our way - transforming the triangle.
Our fitness for the evening involved hills - something the troops have come to expect whenever I'm in charge, and I hate to disappoint. So up the mountainous Myrtle Road we went, stopping at the top to enjoy the view of the lights of the city twinkling away far below. As Tori said:
At least there's a good view...
We then headed back to base, but not before doing some intervals up the hilly Howard Street, using the lamp posts as markers.
Finishing off with some stretches, we the went into the Showroom to enjoy some 100 good deed tiffin in honour of James, made by Suze. It was good.
Happy running (walking is fine too!) - and see you next time for more adventures, when normal service will be resumed with Terrific Tom back in the lead.

I love to be outside. I'm at my happiest skimming stones on a beach, or running somewhere beautiful.
