It was lovely to be back at Goodgym this evening for our weekly fix with our lovely bunch of members – all eager to get running and get helping once again.

Karen, Nigel, Maurice and I met at Coronation Crescent where we did our warmup before heading out for our run. The weather still felt warm and muggy but obviously nowhere near as hot as it had been the week before thank goodness. Tonight, we did a completely different route to anything we’ve done before… we took on some lovely country lanes (bit of a busy road but we survived! Eek!!). It was 3.5 km in total, so I’ve rounded up to 4 for the report! 😉 Well, it’s not my fault that the system doesn’t let me put in 3.5!

We had a chatty run – it was nice to catch up with Maurice after him being away for on his holidays.

Back at the task, it was lovely to join up with Hazel and Phoenix as well as a couple of lovely residents who’d popped out to help. The task tonight was to help to clear an area at the back of the local shops/flats. Unfortunately, this area has been prone to some antisocial behaviour and the area had become untidy and uncared for. Some of the work had already been done by amazing local residents, so our job tonight was to help with the weeding and general tidying up. We set to work with our trowels, spades and weeding tools and within an hour had made quite a difference. We cleared most of the weeds and filled the brown bin!

As always, it was a lovely, chatty, social evening in lovely company. The rain held off until just at the very end when we felt a few small drops starting to come down.

Well done everyone – amazing as always! Look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Have a great week. Love always, Nicola xxx
