The brief was to go on a plog, picking up the usual trash with points given for the more unusual items, and you did not disappoint. A potty, number plate and pregnancy test were picked up in the first haul before the weekend got underway. Many other odd things were found among which were a roll of industrial cling film, kazoo, child's dummy, mobile phone, computer monitor, tyre, half chewed footballs and of course the inevitable condom! Special shout out to Sharon for trying to recruit new GG members en route. 👏🏻

Peter went on three plogs and came out the clear, well deserved, winner. Sharon went twice giving her a good second place. Liz and Jay were close behind in joint third. A fantastic effort by all with lots of areas now looking a lot better for it.

This showed great public spirit, fab team effort-even when operating separately, good natured competitiveness and sportsman like cheering when one of us does well, all done while engaging in activity that helps us keep fit. This is what Good Gym is all about. 😁

Sharon is nominated as next weeks challenge setter.
