This week we started a new relationship with the 61 Football Club where the football ground needs a lick of paint to smarten it up.

We welcomed Abdo to the group for his first session before we set off as a group of runners and a group of walkers on the 4km journey to the Kingsway Recreation Ground, home of 61 FC.

The pitch is surrounded by railings with flaking white paint that needs refreshing so we set to work scraping and cleaning up the surfaces before painting with fresh white paint. At the task we met another Abdo, who joined in and immediately signed up with GoodGym.

The back wall of the stand also got a fresh coat of red paint before we returned to the town centre for chocolate topped cake to celebrate Gill's birthday, Happy Birthday Gill!
