It was a cold and windy Sunday, but GoodGym returned to Sefton Park in force with another 9 runners for the park's weekly litter pick.

As it's the January Challenge (we're 3rd btw), for most of us this was the second good deed of the day (but we cannily recharged from the chilly mission earlier in the morning with a tasty breakfast at Greenbank's Watering Can cafe).

Friends of Sefton Park were thrilled to see so many of us again, and once again, we found some unusual rubbish littered about the park, like ski goggles, a dollar bill, a mini cricket bat and a giant comb.

After filling our bin bags, we were rewarded with a free hot drink at the park's cafe.

We'll be back at the park next week for more unusual finds.

Just to clarify, Toby the Springer was not just found on the litter pick - we brought him with us!
