HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREA!!!!!!

So in case you didn't know today is Andrea's Birthday! And she decided to spend it with us!! We are so lucky!!! Hope you have the best day and evening and thank you for bringing Mark, Haydn, Tina and Lynne along for the run! Guys we hope you enjoyed it and that we see you again soon!

Our original task of painting gates had to be canceled last minute so after a little scramble Mike at Grounded enterprises asked us to help with some gardening at the community garden near Bethany School.

After a warm up we set off through the mist and fog along the prom and to Boscombe and up the steep hills that lead you to Bethany School. Mike had laid out the tools and the team set off to clear a planting bed of all the weeds in there, keeping a small section or Marigolds to be replanted elsewhere. Along with a few potato plants too!

We were also supposed to dig a trench through the middle but there were so many stones in the ground that we weren't able to make our usual fast progress. The team were obviously not going to give up so powered through and made some progress!

Our run back took us through the center of Bournemouth and away from the mist and we were even treated to some sunshine!!

Well done everyone this evening! So many of you are looking great and may need to get out there and do more running!! Hope to see many of you at the social tomorrow night!! Have a look here

Next week we are only a short run away from our task so no excuse not to come along!
