It was great to be back in the GoodGym group run world - though the 25-plus degree heat adds an extra challenge!

We all met up in Queen Square, in our normal corner, feeling like old friends getting together.

Maria swapped to our other task as another run leader was poorly so four of us set out for Dame Emily Park at a fast walk having a good old natter.

With pro litter pickers and lots of energy we were tasked with the basketball court and surrounds and had soon filled bags and, in a very meta world, found a broken set if (inferior, not StreetMaster Pro) litter pickers!

Six bags filled, new street art admired, we returned to Queen Square and discovered a new Thatchers called Green Goblin AND workout's new café bar having a soft launch tonight - lots of investigating to be done before the next group run!
