They converted from pokestops
There is one in my area that is converted from pokestop this week too
Nice I think it would have been better if they just added the gym and kept the old polka stop
#267
Finally last one done in this area.
Turned #72 Gold this morning
#268
This is the first one to go Gold in this area. A couple of others are getting close. There are a lot a Gyms in that area so I’ll be kept busy for a long time.
I’ve just recently joined a new Golf Club that’s down that way so I won’t be going out of my way to hit them. The new expressway is only months from completion too so travel time from home will be cut from 30-40min to 20-30min once complete.
got #14 this morning.
Turned #73 Gold this afternoon.
#269
Reluctantly did a Kubuto Raid on this one on the way to work which was enough to push it over the line.
271
2 new Gold overnight
First one was the one I can see from home. I’m going to brake my rule of leaving a Gym alone after Golding it with this one. I’m going to keep bringing the heat.
The other is #2 in the new area with many Gyms. If I didn’t get booted 3 hrs after putting one back in yesterday there would have been a 3rd Gold over night.
Got #57 gold, this gym is in the same area of #55 and #56
#272
A 3rd Gold in the new area I’m working over. This is not the the same as mentioned about that would have gone Gold if it stayed in overnight. I wont be back to the area for another 2 days to address that Gym along with many others 

Turned #74 Gold yesterday
#273, #274, #275
3 Gold in the last 2 days. One 10min from home and the other 2 in the new area I’m working over 40mins from home.
#276
I’d been in this for 4 days then got kicked out yesterday afternoon about 20min after a Raid I’d done on it on the way to work. Took it back on the way home and 6hrs in time was enough to get it over the line.
I got 2 more that are very close. One will go Gold any hour and the other I lost at around 6pm while at work. I think its that close taking it back after I finish work tonight and dropping one in will be enough to get get it over the line. That one is the last one in that area too.
Currently working 2 different area over atm. One area I do Mon-Fri to and from work and the other I drive to and work over on the weekends. Got a large group that are all progressing at a similar pace and a few that are a lot of work not getting much in time.
#277
Ha, I said any hour. I just checked it as I’m about to leave work for the night and it’s ticked over Gold.
#278
1 battle round on 4 Pokemon for less than 50pts, placement of mine and 30 Berries was enough to Gold it. All Gyms in that area done.
We got a new gym in the village, so I’m allready on it to bring it gold! 
279
Another done on the route to and from work. Just made a start on the last couple I’d left alone in the area now I have a few Gold there. A couple of the earlier ones I started on are progressing at a very slow rate. Need a free weekend and a worthy T5 to push them along a bit. Now that Mardis Gras Goose is gone that can happen.
I’m very close on 3. Should have them by next week.
