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.

Nearly 5 years ago, one of GoodGym Stockport's earliest tasks was to help Alexandra Park Primary School to de-weed and clear up their outdoor area to allow it to be utilised by the pupils in the warmer months. 5 years on and we were back for more of the same!
We set off from our Life Leisure base for an uphill sprint, with a scenic park loop added for mindful measure and clocked up 3km before arriving at the School.
Peter, the school's Business Manager, greeted us with tools and tasks and we set off with the challenge of clearing the area of weeds.
We dug, we shovelled, we weeded and we chatted before completing the task (bang on time!)
