Time for last 14 days update.

#697, #698, #699, #700, #701, #702, #703, #704, #705, #706 & #707

4 of that group were Golded in one complete sitting. 3 were no surprise as the were in remote regional areas but the 4th was only 5 min from home and a newish Gym accessible from a parked car.
3 of the others were a slow chip away in an area where someone who’s not all there in the head thinks they own the Gyms. It was fun making them drop whatever they were doing to go back and take them at all sorts of hours.

Got #141 gold today, it’s a new gym in the same park as #128 and #129, 2 gyms and 5 pokestops can be reached at the same time if parked at the right spot, which is very nice to restock items.

My mon was able to stay overnight and fed some berries, it turned gold before being kicked out.

Got #142 gold today, it’s the first of 4 gyms that are out of my normal playing route and first of 2 next to each other in a small park.

My mon was lucky enough to stay at the gym for one and half day the other day, a raid there today pushed it gold.

Got #143 gold today, it’s in the same area with #136 and #137. My mon is usually got kicked late night or pass midnight by the same trainer from opposing team, and I retake the gym at day time, but this time my mon is lucky enough to stay at the gym for 2+ days, maybe he/she figured out I’m working on getting the gym gold so he/she gave up taking over the gym for couple days.

Got #144 gold today, it’s the first of 2 gyms next to each other in a small park in the same area as #136 137 143. Like those 3, it’s always occupied by opposing team, after I takeover the gym, it usually is just my mon or one or two others join the gym.

Took over the gym and did a raid there, it turned gold.

Got #145 gold yesterday, it’s next to #144. It’s very annoying that my mon was kicked within an hour being at the gym for couple days during the final stretch. At last my mon was able to stay for 12 hours before being kicked before midnight as usual, it turned gold.

Got #146 gold today. This utility box was a new stop and turned into gym because new nearby stops were created, a raid there today pushed it gold.

Another gold gym with 0 gym battle won.

Didn’t expect to get 25 Gold in January as it looked like it was going to slow down a bit after the initial week. Got some unexpected longer stays on a few traditionally quick turn over gyms. Also found a badge I had missed mid last year when updating my master list only because two gyms share the same name at opposite ends of a reserve. When entering the second and recent one I noticed the first one wasn’t on my alphabetical Gold list.
