After two goodgym social runs a group of eight met in the local park to do some good and help keep one of our regular walking, running, and cycling areas clean and tidy. Welcome to Aidan who joined for the social run and then stayed on for the litter pick.

It was a beautiful walk through the trails of the woodland and wild garlic was the usual abundant spring plant that we've come to love in the parks.

Not as much litter on the path as in our past missions, and the river Taff was high after all the rainfall on Saturday. But we still found the usual items along the bank, we kept the polystyrene and plastic away from our waterways as much as we could.

A nice clean river for the new little ducklings to explore.

Plenty of chatting and lots of walking and three bags of rubbish later, it was time to head off back to rest of our Sunday plans.
