"Hay bales are gone, they needed taking Weeds are up, they needed pulling It's windy outside, we are covered in mud, wading in a muddy wonderland"

On a wintery Saturday morning, 6 Goodgym runners embarked on yet another mission at Windmill Hill City Farm. The weather turned on them quickly upon arrival. The bright blue sky unexpectly darkened and rain clouds emptied their content on the runners. After quickly deciding how to pursue their quest to rescue the sheep pen from weeds, they gathered tools and got digging deep into the mud. Some leftover hay also had to be eliminated to allow the pasture to regrow quickly.

Newest recruit Robert had never been to the farm before but dealt incredibly well with the muddy conditions. After an hour of joint efforts, the field was cleared from weeds and ready for the sheep to turn once the mud has vanished.

Well done everyone!
