A lovely warm evening for a session in the churchyard!

We arrived by running and cycling to Leyton's churchyard where Mel met us with an offer of a cuppa and new tools to help clear the section by the Church Road.

We grabbed all the tools and heavy duty gloves and started chopping down overgrown areas around the gravestones. We definitely put the world to rights discussing the meltdown of the government, travelling, our upcoming race in Amsterdam, books we'd read and multi-tasking! Turns out some people can talk and garden at the same time!;)

An enjoyable hour to socialise whilst doing good and an a run/cycle back home. Well done everyone!
