501 people set off from the start line on a warm, sunny morning . Pacers from Norwich Road Runners were about with their blue numbered bibs & a lot of PBs were gained today for those chasing a fast time. There were again, a large number of parkwalkers which is great to see, runners & walkers in harmony, great ethos of Parkrun

A storming morning of sunshine today as we returned to Valpy Avenue allotments for another round of bramble clearing.

Releasing another plot for use from the grasp of Skynet’s brambles. A chainsaw was even used by one of the extra volunteers supporting GoodGym to get the hardest bits of bramble cleared.

Fun was had and ground was cleared. Afterwards everyone celebrated with a picnic featuring some refreshing watermelon slices! Task to be continued...

Tonight 8 GoodGymer's ran 4km to Edmund Bacon Court.

The local residents had been donated a number of herbs including Lavender, Rosemary and other plants, Azalea, Hydrangeas, Geraniums and Salvias.

So we began our first task, weeding the borders and collecting any unwanted bulbs to be dried out. Then came the digging, checking the holes were the correct depth and pouring in water before bedding in the new plants.

The residents were delighted with our efforts and even supplied tea & biscuits!

We look forward to seeing this grow when return later in the year.

Ms J had asked for help to get her garden cleared of weeds so she could get out in the sunshine and use her table and chairs.

Some of the weeds had got to 5ft high and it was lovely to clear them so she had a nice view out of her window. I even found some flowers peaking beneath the grass including bluebells and some calendula under her silver birch tree. She really appreciated the help in being able to make the most of her garden again
