(Uni)Corn on the 4th of July

Does Task A falling over stop us at GoodGym Bristol? Oh no. And Task B? Nope. Task C? Eek. Bring on the best task, saved as Task D! In the pouring summer rain! Laurie, joining us for the first time, kindly bought into this sales pitch - thanks, Laurie!

Unicornfest is a magical trail of different custom painted Unicorns, painted by many local artists. It's part of the 650th anniversary celebrations for Bristol, uniting the business and creative sectors, as well as local communities and schools across Bristol and the surrounding area, bringing art, colour and fun to the streets of the city this year. And an opportunity to collect selfies whilst raising money for Leukaemia Care.

Armed with Unicorn Divining Sticks (and bin bags), the running group set off one way and the walking group in the opposite direction to find those unicorns, take cool photos with said unicorns and make Bristol that bit tidier as we went. We even have a photo of us literally clutching at straws courtesy of Burger King rubbish.

Loads of people thanked us as they hurried past in the rain, some asked is if we were litter picking through choice, many just accepted that unicorn hunting in the rain whilst litter picking is a normal thing to do in Bristol.

The running group claimed 9 unicorns, the walkers 8 but the last one was "slightly cheeky" as a spot across the harbour from Pero's Bridge but we're counting it as the runners didn't see it when they crossed the bridge! Oh, and 6 bags of rubbish and recycling taken off our streets.
