Happy Birthday to us!

We just turned 3 years old! Seems like yesterday when we started with a handful of regulars and no post run beers to now with a big bunch of regular runners, regular post run beers and a whole host of extra curricular things going on all thanks to our amazing community of runners who like to get fit and do good

We welcomed first time GG runner Charlotte Owen who was up from London to get her first taste of GG fun.

Give her a cheer!

This week we were back off to help SENSATIONAL SUSTRANS SIMON on the National Cycle Network. We ran uphill to Manor to and an access point to the NCN which is covered over with trees, which makes it beautiful, though very slippery at this time of the year with the leaves falling.

Fear not, GG were to the rescue with a mass of people with stiff bristled brushes we soon got the technique to a tee with lines and then piles being formed in sweet synchronicity. We very quickly filled two builders bags with leaves and pilled the rest of the leaves on the side of the path to compost and leave the path free of slippery leaves.

In addition to the leaf sweeping we did a litter pick which ended with 9 bags of rubbish and a heater fan!

Two other teams formed and help to edge the path and cut back any overgrowing overgrowth!

With it being the birthday with beers and cake awaiting we gave the fitness session a miss just this week so that we had time to get to the pub in time for our booked buffet, kindly organised by Kim who had also made a pro level cake which was delicious.

Good times and celebrations were had and happy birthday was sung!

Here's to the next three years!

Happy Running :)
