I have to say I was a little nervous before tonight because the description of the task was a slight accidental/purpose mistake to what the actual main task was. It was in fact manure (aka poo) that was to be shovelled and moved but in my defence that is kind of made up from straw and compost.

We welcomed another 2 runners this week in Sinead and David... I'm hoping the task didn't put you off haha.

Katy was going to lead the group tonight with Frin and Mish being back runners so I could float about. It was quite a long run at about 4km each way.

So aside from shovelling s#!t, other jobs at Angelica's Rainbow were to sort the animals out, disinfect the fences and some general tidying up bits.

The sheep and pony were pretty cute to be fair so was nice for everyone to pet them for a bit.

Back to the poo, Ali (sporting bags over his trainers), Stephen, Tammy and David were straight in there (literally) and started forking together, transporting the poo into barrows for a team of others to transport them to the truck where Sinead was helping to unload the forked produce.

With Kev being from Wales, he had to have the obligatory photo with a sheep.

As always, the team were proactive and found other jobs that needed doing (although I think their rate went up to time and a turd) so it was really useful to Angelica's Rainbow.

After about 35 minutes we headed back to The Forum with Grapes Hill thrown in there too.

I know people say I talk about s#!t a lot of the time well I think this run report demonstrates that haha but that's enough for now... oh wait, not quite as Frin mentioned that when she got home a piece off sheep poo fell off her so she tamely placed it on her husband's leg... now that is true love at it's very best.

Next week we are still running on bank holiday as we visit Bluebell Allotments.

With rain all afternoon I thought we were in for a wash out but as I walked up the stairs at The Forum there was an array of GoodGymers rearing to go. By the time we left the sun was out and it was a very nice evening.

Word must be spreading as we had a whopping new 8 runners this week. A big huge welcome to Rebecca, Francesca, Lizzy, Alicia, Amy, Lee, Steven and Ali.

Bill and Katy were fashioning their new black Goodgym t-shirts after reaching 50 good deeds a couple of weeks back.

A little talk was had about the races done at the weekend, a few done the Reepham 10km and Hayley and Jen did a half marathon, which was Jen's 1st and yet another amazing GoodGym story that has unfolded. It really is fantastic to see how GoodGym is changing people's lives for the better.

For tonight Katy kindly volunteered to be lead runner (or did I tell her to? Either/Or haha) and Elizabeth was back runner.

To the task then - we had a 3km each way trip to Eaton Park this evening to clean the gates, water the fruit trees and do a litter pick. Upon arrival I split the group into each activity and off they went.

Being such a large park, by the time everyone had returned to the band stand we didn't have time for the fitness session that I'd planned... to the joy of some.

On the way back I let Bill lead the group and I was back runner.

Next week we're off to visit Angelica's Rainbow.
