Report written by Nicola Marshall
It's Wednesday! That can only mean one thing…. It's a Goodgym night with my lovely Goodgym friends. I really do love my Wednesday evenings, spending time with lovely people, getting some fresh air and exercise and doing something helpful for the community.
Tonight, Emily, Gill, Karen, Maurice, Nigel and Nicola met at Crewe Park and it was still daylight!! I think that's the first time it's been noticeably light at the start of a task since last year. It felt really good. Spring is in the way!! Before starting our task though, we headed out for a brisk walk around the park. It was only about a mile circular route, but it was enough to get the heart rate up and enough time to give us the chance to have a catch up with one another.
Tonight, we did a litter pick down one of the streets not too far from the park. Karen had noticed that there was a lot of litter as she had been driving to junior parkrun recently, and thought it would be a good place for us to do a tidy up. She wasn't wrong! We filled 7 ginormous bags of rubbish and if we'd had more time, I'm sure we could have quite easily filled the same again!
Once we had finished our litter pick, we headed off to Hops bar for our post pick refreshment. We had a good natter, a good laugh and some nice drinks and snacks - and I was busy having such a nice time, that I forgot to take a photograph!!!
Well done everyone, another amazing task and seven huge bags of rubbish off our streets. You're all wonderful.
Have a great week.
Lots of love, Nicola xxx
