4 members of GoodGym Barnsley ran to the lovely Locke Park to help with sorting out the sandpit.

Sweeping all the sand back and picking out the litter from the pit is a daily task, just one of the many features of the park that the Friends of Locke Park look after. We were glad to do our bit in sweeping up the sand, and were even joined by a few members of the public. The more the merrier!

It was another mild and clear evening, and we enjoyed the sunset and a good chat as we took a longer route back, with one of our runners Jason turning it in a good 5km for the group.

Of course, we managed to get a quick group photo or two with the GoodGym flag to celebrate 10 wonderful years of GoodGym and all the work and miles that have been done in the last decade.

Next week we'll be back to the Barnsley Carer's Garden, sign up here. Please bring a headtorch for the run back.

We are also meeting up for Nostell parkrun together this weekend as part of #SuperSaturday on the 21st. Sign up here. Don't forget your GoodGym tshirt (and your barcode!).
