3 Goodgymmers excited to get stuck in at Braunstone Community Primary had their dreams dashed when the gates were locked and nobody was at home. Turning the situation around we cracked open a non-alcoholic Athletic brewery beer in the shade while waiting another 10 minutes just incase because we had been assured someone would come to let us in. Luckily the litter pickers were still in the car from last week.

The busy school road was being dug up so we could litter pick to our hearts content without any traffic. Plus there was plenty to pick from, cans and bottles lined the street and even a plastic frog that Jimmy kept to put on his bike.

We enjoyed the walk and the chats, Stu telling us about his 10km trail race in Wales and taking 2nd place in his age group, yet again another win for Stu the running legend. Plus Jimmy sharing his wisdom in cycling, he doesn't realise it but I would not be out on my bike as much without his wise words, one day I will get a bike rack.

Weldone both, so pleased you could join in.
