A very soggy day, that according to the weather forecast was supposed to clear up toward GoodGym time....well....the weather forecast was WRONG!!!!

With the promise of a get together and some beach time to go with it 14 lovely people hoped for the best and turned up to do some good!

Due to the weather we changed our plan from a beach clean to a Boscombe Garden clean. So a longer run and probably a lot more litter to hope for....well.....Bournemouth is pretty clean on Wednesdays!!

But after filling a few bags and then sorting through them for recycling....didn't want our Sarah coming after us....we made friends with a guy who had litter picked half a bath....and set off on our way back to Bournemouth Pier...somewhere in the foggy distance!

After 6.5km and getting very wet through a mix of rain and mugginess we got back to our meet location to gather our things and get together at the pub for some food and drinks!

Always lovely to hang out with our GoodGym family!!!

Next week we are gardening!!!
