Litter Picking, Cycle Pacing and Paw Patrol in the park
1 GoodGymer made their way to help the Eaton Park in Norwich.
- Saturday, 14th of November 2020
- Led by Norwich runner
I left the house in the drizzle (I was a bit late as I managed to sleep 10 hours straight, it has been a busy week). I had in had my own personal litter picker - £13 from Amazon - litter picking just got serious.
Jess and Tim came out with me too as Jess was going to cycle for 9 laps around the park on her bike. This was to take part in the 'Act Your Age Challnege' for her Brownie unit and Children in Need. Somehow the 9 little laps totalled to 4 miles, I didn't think I would be doing quite that much this morning. I litter picked on the way to our start point, ran alongside Jess and litter picked around the park and on the way back home.
Here's a list of the finds -
Soda Can ( I do think Beer cans need to go on this list)
Candy Wrapper
Bottle Cap/Lid
Paper
Straw
fast food wrapper
toy
piece of plastic
foil of foil
piece of plastic
also -
Bike bungee thing with hooks Juice cartons Dog bags (the poopless ones of course)
My favourite of all of these was a character from (Paw Patrol I think) - I left him on the school gates in hope of a reunion.
It felt good to have the Goodgym top on again and to mix exercise with doing good.
