Report written by Tom (Harman) Hinton
12 runners braved the rain & wind to help Heeley Peoples Park. On arrival we met up with Bev and Rob who put us straight to task. With a last minute change of plan we grabbed a barrow full of spades and headed over to the woodland walk to clear the drains so the paths wouldn't wash out in the deluge.
After the task 9 runners did laps, burpees, star jumps, squats and lunges in the park before heading home it dry off.
Well done all!
