4 keen Goodgymmers met at Braunstone Community Primary school. Today's task was to clear the brambles in their allotments to create a safe and enjoyable space for them to learn about growing produce.

Everyone got stuck in as always and lots of running chat as always with Gareth (AKA Bod) completing the LAP, the 45 mile ultra in the Lake District, amazing achievement. Also Stu being a little disgumbled about someone beating him in his age category in a non-race Parkrun, poor Stu, he's usually the V70 champion at every Parkrun he does, an inspiration to our community.

After some digging, trimming and many wheelbarrow loads later the overgrown area was looking far better, we could see the ground! Strength work deffinatly complete after that, I couldn't even lift one of the roots Stu dug up, it was monstrous!

We were treated to hot drinks and cake today, very much to Stu's delight when anyone mentions cake, he was still on about the amazing lemon sponge Dawn made last week, putting it on his wish list. Weldone all fab efforts, we'll be visiting again soon.
