For the latest GoodGym Bristol we met as usual on Wednesday night at Roll for the Soul. After a quick warm up we headed out into the cold dark night.

Our task was in two parts this week. First we ran to Easton along the cycle path to complete last week’s task, planting bulbs at a small park on Chaplin Road. The bulbs looked strangely like dog biscuits, we’ll have to run past in the spring to see if anything comes up!

We then ran across the City to St Pauls to plant some daffodil bulbs. We only had a short time to complete the task so some speed planting took place, with over 200 bulbs planted in about 10 minutes.

We completed the run by heading back into town, through the bear pit and to Roll for the Soul. It was great to see some new faces and well as some old faces we hadn’t seen for a while. It’s always good to experience Niall’s jokes! Next run is a Saturday run, December 7th, meeting at Roll for the Soul at 10am.
