Mulch of a mulchness

4 Goodgymers returned to the Kenilworth Centre to help with a litter pick and collecting leaves for leaf mulch.

After a short run up the rather steep hill from Abbey Fields James and Nigel set to work raking and sweeping leaves from where they had collected on the borders and paths of the Centre and used the dustpans to help scoop them up into used compost bags.

Allan meanwhile set to work with the litter pickers hunting out rubbish around the back of the Centre (although some people suggested he might have run off to the Almanac for a swift pint and to warm up) ;-)

It took no time at all before we had filled 9 whole bags with damp leaves and Allan reappeared with an impressive full bag of rubbish, so we had to quickly take back any suggestions of slacking as that was a job well done!

We tucked away the bags of leaves ready to rot down over the next few months to make some lovely leaf mulch for the Centre's garden. We also admired the lovely new plaques that are now centre stage in the memorial garden before heading back down the hill to Abbey Fields.

To finish off the session we completed a few interval hill reps in Abby Fields which really got the blood pumping and helped to get Allan and James revved up for the Coombe 8 on Sunday!
