We welcomed a new runner to the fold this week. A big hand and GG welcome to;

Liam Chisman

Give him a cheer!

This week we were back off to our old friends at Heeley People's Park to help them with spreading much needed woodchip after the recent wet weather had really taken it's toll on some of the paths.

Raking it in...

In addition to the woodchipping we helped to rake up all of the loose grass and cuttings from the recently strimmed wildflower meadow.

Following a good session and a natural end point of getting to the end of the path we headed off to the U-Mix park for some Tripple Trouble fitness using the stone benches within the park to smash out 20 reps of each of the following;

  • Press up's
  • Box jumps or step ups
  • Tri dips

After our fitness session we headed home to stretch off and hear of the latest news and upcoming events.

Until next time, happy running :)
