For the latest GoodGym Bristol run we had probably our shortest run to the task ever, just around the corner from Welshback to the Quakers’ Burial Ground in Redcliffe.

After meeting at Vivo Healtclub and a quick intro from Chris we ran straight to this week’s task. Once we got there we split into two groups, with Kim taking a group of people on a longer run and leaving everyone else to get stuck into the task with Sara from Incredible Edible.

The park is being transformed into an edible park, with the first step to remove all the overgrown vegetation and rubbish. Armed with forks spades and a mattock(!) the first group got stuck in, ready to swap with the second group when they came back from their runs.

After the second group got back from the run we headed back to Welshback, stopping in Queens’ Square on the way to stretch and warm down.

We got loads done, and this is a long term project and so we’ll be back for more!

For next week’s run we’re heading to Windmill Hill City Farm
