This week nineteen Sheffield GGers set aside their evening to help out Simon at Sustrans. Thankfully, the northern weather patterns finally aligned and we didn't get soaked to the bone, which made a change... After a short run to the task we took up tools and worked on the three jobs Simon had set us; 1) litter picking 2)vegetation chopping and 3)sweeping the paths of leaf debris. Sweeping proved particularly popular!

Like a well-oiled machine, all GoodGymers completed their tasks with extreme efficiency and soon there was no more left to be done. After bidding farewell (until next time!) to Simon, we headed back to the Showroom. En-route, we incorporated a few hill sprints as our fitness session. Despite many runners having raced the Ten10Ten the previous day, there was some serious speed! Great job everyone!

After the hills, there was another short run back to base for stretches, news, and drinks ☺️

After welcoming new GG runners Hayley and Kate - please give them a cheer :) on this very moist evening in Sheffield 22 hard core GG runners pipped it 1.4 miles from the Showroom to meet Lucy from Abundance to pick apples from one resident's apple trees. Fighting food waste, many cooking and eating apples were collected, picked and sorted into firsts and seconds to be shared by Abundance with the local community. Wet, Wet Wet rewrite: "I feel it in my fingers... I feel it in my toes... Rain is all around us, and so the coldness grows" The GG good apple team pressed on back at a speedy pace to get dry and warm back at the Showroom. Thanks everyone :)
