Where the streets have no name
4 GoodGymers made their way 2.7km to help the Sheffield Urban Cyclo Park Hill Uprise Urban Hill Climb Cycle in Sheffield.

On a damp, drizzly dark eve a FANTASTIC FOUR ventured to the other side of the track to meet with SUSTRANS SIMON at Park Hill to grab tools and then meet up with Adam Simmonite of Sheffield Urban Cyclocross to help clean the cobbles ready for the charity bike race happening this weekend!
Spades and brushes were tonights tools of the trade. We took a side each and got straight to scraping the overgrown weeds and moss that had encrouched onto the cobbles over time.
It was a pretty intense workout for the arms and back which is not the usual target during a GG sesh, so nice to have the variety.
By the time we were done the path was looking loads clearer and much more race ready for the weekend.
Post run we had a stair session, follow by some stretching and a mini tour of Park Hill flats before heading to our homes.
Until next time, happy running :)

It was an edgy evening with folk cutting down the slopes. And that was just us. I got far too excited looking around Park Hill and their shop. Lovely you can walk through Park Hill now. Hope to see some of you at the race from 12pm on Saturday.
