Many hands make light work and we certainly proved that with our task this evening.

The task was to spread woodchip in the woods along the route for Woking Parkrun as the course gets very muddy this time of year.

In addition to a great showing from local GoodGym members, people from several local running clubs even including 2 children from junior parkrun got stuck in to the work without complaint.

The huge heap of woodchip provided by the council was a lot smaller by the time we stopped as it was starting to get dark.

We did not really have enough tools for the 17 volunteers to use but Jenny brought her wheelbarrow, Rebecca brought various buckets, we borrowed the parkrun token buckets and Richard brought a shovel so we got by.

A brilliant result and a fun task so a big well done to everyone. Alys brought her dog to supervise us and he loves the attention, as we loved the ice lollies that Rebecca brought.

Look forward to the next one!
