A smaller group this week with some of our regulars being at Love Trails Festival so it wasn't long before we were all gathered at Glass Mill and ready to get going.

I left everyone to the new warm up that Oli had planned for the evening and set off on a walk up the hill to Luxmore Gardens. It wasn't that long before the group came running past me, luckily it was a shorter run and we only ended up arriving a couple of minutes apart.

Another week, another flower bed to de-weed at Luxmore Gardens. We are gradually moving down the flower beds and this time we were situated near the water fountain where bindweed was taking over!

In a change of tradition we took the group photo first as I wasn't sure I'd make it to then end. Spoiler alert: I didn't make it to the end.

Anything could have happened after I headed off to get the bus but for purposes of this run report, everyone continued weeding and the beds looked beautiful!!

Nice one Louise for fitting in two tasks in one evening - it was good to see you pre-group-run for your community mission at the Ladywell Tiny Forest - impressive stamina!
