What a wonderful day full of sunshine we had, surely the evening run would be glorious......
Not a CHANCE
And yet, still 5 plucky volunteers got together at Sport Wales, ready to take to the windy wet streets of Cardiff once more on our Tuesday task run. Thankfully, it wasn't too far tonight, just a 2km run to the organisation that we were helping - Cwtch Together.
Cwtch together is a disability play project held in the centre of Cardiff which promotes inclusive play and socialisation for disabled children and their families.
Our task tonight was to help move the rather large metal fence panels and some additional bits from the back of the building over against a wall, where they will later be secured with chains. This would then allow clearer access to the back space that we have been helping to clear now for a few months.
As we arrived we were greeted by the ever lovely Sarah (after briefly scaring her first - sorry about that), we had a lovely brief catch up and then set to work. The rain must have known that we were doing good as it almost stopped as we set to our tasks, before being nothing more than a drizzle. 30 minutes and the task was of course complete - we were not running in this rain to not finish the task!
We made our way inside for a moment, another quick chat and a group photo - both for us and for the Cwtch facebook account. Finally run - to the bus stop, where we all got on our buses to make our way home. I don't know about the rest of you but I was straight in a warm shower and then my pjs.
Until Next time, and hopefully dryer weather.
