We had a Weedy Good Time on the Path to our WEEDER

We must be blessed for our group runs lately with yet another beautiful sunny evening for our 10 Goodgym runners taking on a sweet 5k run to Bath Organic group on the upper Bristol road to help clear the Paths ready for their GROW IT, EAT IT event being held on Sunday at 1.30pm with visitors getting a chance to taste the produce and do a bit if live voting on their favourites. Such a lovely place and well worth a visit.

Great to see a few familiar faces tonight with a visit and Paul from Bristol clocking up a lot of Good Deeds lately, I think he's on a mission! He's definitely been on a few lately and I believe Kim maybe the root of the cause.

Warm up and intros out of the way, we headed out along the river for a change of scenery and a little shade along the way whilst being mindful of the many bicycles that frequent this route. We even endured some functional fitness on route to get us limbered up and ready.

We arrived at the task in good time. Kate and Tim our hosts were waiting for us armed with tools and gloves to help us get to the root of the problem, so we took the challenge TWO BY TWO with John and Cosmo getting stuck into composting and Paul (with the trousers) and Emma tackling the stingers leaving Pascale,Mim and Joe clearing the pathway leading to the pond. Rosie joined us after her coach run.

We devoted 40 minutes in the end with the last 5 minutes consisting of drinking fresh apple juice and eating sausage rolls with a wee toast to tonight's hosts in the group photo. We even bagged an apple or two.

It's amazing what a bit of hard graft and sweat can achieve in a short space of time, plus you get the added bonus of THE FEEL GOOD factor for good measure.

A nice fast paced run back to the leisure centre with a stretch out followed by a short walk to take some thirst quenching refreshments for our monthly social catch up on everything Goodgym. Rosie is now Taskforce and will be organising our 1st Birthday party and Christmas social. Pascale was Wassailing to the group when I left with a hop skip and jump.

Thanks you amazing lot for keeping the summer months alive and here's hoping September brings us more sunny days. A special mention to Emma and John for our combined Pun tonight.

Do bring your ID to the next group run and get signed up ready for The heritage pools visit next week https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/heritage-pools
