You know a Group Run is going to go well when a bird poos on you during the registration and welcome phase!

That was three brand new GoodGymmers first experience of Bristol GoodGym but they stayed! Welcome Jono, Nicoleta and Jake.

Alice lead a pretty much circular run to Redcliffe whilst the walkers took the short route and carried the litter picking kit and light.

It's one of those places you can approach and disperse from in all directions so there were soon red T-shirts (often hidden under more layers) darting about tidying the communal spaces around the focal point of Somerset Square (that’s not a square).

So much rubbish collected, and so quickly, that there was time to warm back up with a run or walk to Queens Square and some bingo-busting galloping plus stretching, more chatting and NO MORE BIRD POO!
