Busy Saturday with litter picking in Longsight collecting four refuse sacks full of rubbish on the streets. Mostly cans and bottles.

Ran to Fletcher Moss parkrun (event #198) with Juno to shadow the RD with the prospect of becoming RD in the near future. Helped with set up, sorting out marahalls, funnel managing, and tidy up afterwards. The hail and rain was an unwelcome surprise!

Followed parkrun volunteering with a run to Stockport to drill a few green lids as part of the Plastic Shed wall mural. The mural is spectacular!
