Well done for braving the rain tonight!

Tonight’s task was a new one - we were helping out Hob’s Moat library doing some gardening for them.

Once there, Catherine showed us around and had very kindly prepared some oranges for us after our run! We got to work weeding the walkway up to the library and around the back of the building.

After this was completed, it was time to say our goodbyes and have our obligatory photo. The run was slightly longer than normal, so no time to squeeze in a fitness session, but the route was uphill on the way back, so a little harder on the legs. Unfortunately the heavy rain timed badly for our run back to base and we were certainly dripping by the time we were back at base! We were certainly relieved to be back in the warm and dry.

For our first September run, we’ll be litter picking in Tudor Grange and Brueton Park - so get your trainers out and I’ll see you there!
