It was a brisk jog to get to Mr S, but the rain held off for both there and the return.

Mr S is settling into his new flat and is working through the boxes, I helped go through them and unpack some essentials and put some bits back in the boxes for now in a more re-organised fashion.

Mr. S was very happy and was looking forward to re-discovering some of the of books and DVDs that were in the boxes.

There's something strange in the neighbourhood...

Sadly the Mile Cross area of Norwich has a high amount of fly tipping and litter. To combat this, the Mile Cross Litterbusters formed to try and tackle some of the worst hit areas. They regularly meet on weekends, but were happy to connect with GoodGym for a first ever evening litter pick.

6 GoodGymer's ran or walked 4km to Wensum park, where we met Rebecca who had handed out the equipment, instructions and hi-vis. We read through the health & safety, and set off in pairs armed with grabbers & bin trolleys.

Keeping an eye out for any hazards, we covered a large area of roads around the park and local shops. The most surprising find was a discarded kettle!

An hour flew by, and in total 7 bags were filled - ready to be collected by the council in the morning. We even received a certificate for our efforts! It was very rewarding task, superbly organised by Rebecca & her team.

it had been raining all night but come 08.30 it stopped! 4 hardy juniors turned up to the park, and at the run briefing we all celebrated a 75 run, 25 run wristband & our very own Jacks 25 volunteer wristband. Well done everyone. The tailwalker crossed the finish and the heavens opened and we all got wet packing up! The joys of Volunteering !

it was cold this morning even though the sun was out. 373 people including tourists from Poole & Poland and 4 first time parkrunners attended.

Ms C has a very large tree in her small garden space and needed help clearing and raking away fallen leaves to spruce up her garden. We didn't leaf a stone unturned and now Ms C can sit back and relax.

The stage was set for - Mulch Ado About Nothing at the Globe (Place). A tale of two halves.

The 1st Act began in daylight and dry conditions, 8 players with spades and barrows transformed an area of weeds or was it coriander?!

As the light dimmed the rain blew in.

For the 2nd Act, a stage of leaves were cleared using rakes and magic super scoopers!

The players took their final curtain, and bid farewell to the appreciative crowd.

Thanks to the LTC Green Spaces for arranging this production.
