On a lovely spring morning, twelve runners ran to Bedminster to help spruce up some beds and planters for Urban Buzz. Our work helped support a local community group who have been very buszzzy improving the street environment all along West Street.

Strides of March: After a quick brief on the planting tasks, a team of eight set to work on the flower bed, whilst two teams of two took on the planters. Light work was made of the planting, allowing a bit of varnish to be applied to a community notice board.

Varnishing act: Task done, we had a short run back followed by a quick warm down. Several runners stayed on for a bite to eat at the Mud Dock cafe.
