A merry band of Goodgymmers met at Westbank Park to continue their mission to make it non-slip in the current icy weather.

We welcomed Kay who has come back to Goodgym after joining some group runs a few years ago. She also brought her son, Dan who wanted tag along to see what it was all about before deciding whether to join Goodgym himself.

There was still a fair amount of grit on the ground from the previous day's effort, so it was a quick case of checking for bare patches and topping up where needed.

We finished in record time, and were rewarded with a lovely snow shower.
