This morning six runners and marshals joined us post parkrun for a spot of gardening. Paul from Friends of Greenhead Park asked us to prune back the hedge and undergrowth which was poking through the fence by the roundabout at the junction of Gledholt Road and Park Road South. Off we set armed with trimmers and bin bags quickly hacking back brambles and bushes, and managing to fill eight bin bags. Today was a perfect example of people trying to fit in a few minutes of doing good into their already busy schedules. Lots of us had to head off early due to family or other commitments, and this is absolutely fine. A lot can be achieved by two people putting in half an hour each. GoodGym Huddersfield meet every Tuesday at 6:30, usually at the Stadium for a group run and a task. The next post parkrun community mission will be on Saturday 6th July when we will be delivering flyers for Marshfest. Thanks to Helen Bennett for some of todays pics.
