Report written by Bournemouth runner
Today saw us zig and zag our way to Hope Housing to help Mark all the rubbish that had accumulated from building work.
It was great to have Steve come back and join us after coming along for his first group run last week. We obviously didn't scare him off!! Good work team!!! After a very busy summer it was lovely to have Abi's smiley face back with us. We hope work doesn't keep you away from us for too long this time! Thank you Ross for joining us and helping us out! Hope you're able to run with us soon! We miss you!
After arriving at Hope Housing this evening Mark gave us lots of boxes so we could start sorting the rubbish....carpet, metal, tv's, pipes, lamps, cans, plastic bags, cardboard you name it, we sorted it! We then had to carry it to the side of the road to then be put into a skip that was being delivered.
We dealt with interesting smells but the gang weren't fazed at all! Not even the mosquitos were enough to stop them!
We managed to get everything out and left the yard looking much better! Well done everyone and you look great in the photos! The big panoramic shot was to large to upload, so I will add it to the Facebook page....like it if you haven't already! Well done Andrea on completing the Wolf Run last weekend, and Heather who managed almost 5 full laps of the Nuts Challenge....which is mental. Hope she tells us about it next week! Speaking of next week, we'll be doing some gardening with Grounded Enterprises. Come along!!
