Fantastic to welcome a new runner tonight, please give it up for...
Give Phoebe a whoop, hola and cheer!
We headed over to Pistmoor Road this evening to meet with MARVELOUS MALCOLM who had already been on site for a while getting the worst of the litter onto the pavement for us to swoop in and take the 'glory picks'.
There were some true treats in store with some very old rubbish which was fast becoming part of the geology of the area, had we not have got in there!
A decent pile was presented at the end for the council to later come and pick up.
Until next time, happy running! :)

Tarj (he/him) completed 25 good deeds with GoodGym.
Tarj has already done 25 good deeds with GoodGym. Instead of doing anything else, they've used their run to go and help people that need their help; digging, lifting, scraping, clearing, planting and weeding. Stuff that makes this a better place to be.

We had something a bit different this week. It was a tough one!
The now annual Park Hill Uprise Urban Hill Climb organised by Adam Simmonite of Sheffield Urban Cyclocross.
More details on the event and entry can be found here.
The main aim of the eve was to try and gain back as much of the cobbles from nature as possible. This is a fantastic area, but it's not shown so much love and the once wide cobblestone paths get grown over by weeds and moss, making it less accessible to people and particularly for this event slippery and not as safe as it should be.
ENTER GOOD GYM!
Armed with sharp spades, brushes and snow plows, kindly borrowed from SUSTRANS SIMON, we got straight to work after meeting Adam on site who had already put over an hours shift in!
By the end of our time the path was looking much safer and wider, ready for the main event this coming Saturday! If you can make it down to enter or even just to support on the sidelines it will be sure to be a great event!
Following the efforts some of us headed to The Rutland Arms for refreshments and a first experience of the ledgendary 'Rutty Butty' - All the carbs!

You guys really went for it! Well done. I soon ran out of steam and the noise was painful!

On a lovely Sheffield eve we headed out to meet Karen Malone and two other keen Pitsmoor Pickers in a new area of town to our usual spot to get picking!
Tom was the can man for the eve, collecting as many cans as possible to be recycled and cashed in for money that goes back into equipment for the Pitsmoor Pickers.
Amongst items found were individual shoes, suspicious coloured liquids in bottles, the all now common catering sized N02 dispensors.
It was great to be in a new area and to meet some new pickers!
Until next time, happy running! :)
