5 super duper runners joined the Starter Session and ran (over!) 3km completing a litter pick and clean up of Kings Park

This month we have an extra 2 group runs happening on Saturday mornings - today was the first. I was met down at Urban Reef by 2 new lovely female faces, Raluca and Molly had heard about GoodGym and came along to give it a try. We also had Caprice and Ross - joining us after smashing out a ParkRun, well done guys!

Although it was a tad drizzly and grey, we enjoyed (?!) running up the mighty marina road before heading east to Woodland Walk. It was great to get to know our new runners and both are keen to be paired and to go on missions - yay!

Kings Park was choc-a-bloc with active people which was great to see. We made a start on a litter pick - first item found was a FULL UNOPENED can of lager. Too early? Ross was tempted! We had grafitti wipes left over from our Wednesday task so had a game of spot the vandalism before running over and trying our best to rub it off - some determined taggers in Boscombe!

I had planned for a plank off - but time ran away from us and we had to collect and dispose of the litter we'd picked and dash back down a lovely long hill to Boscombe Pier. Talk turned to food and weekend plans - and soon enough we were back doing a warm down and chatting about the gardening task on Wednesday.

Awesome Starter Session - and big welcome to our new GoodGymers!

See you Wednesday.....
