The Ace Of Spades

Monday 25th September 2023

Written by Caprice McWilliams

Eleanor and Daryl the legends met for the group run and Katie and Caprice made their own way to the session. Katie still recovering from a car accident and Caprice just a snotty mess. Hopefully it won't be long until they are back in action! They were met by caretaker Neil who showed them an area at the back of the school where he had already been cutting back an apple tree. The mission was to clear a large vegetable patch so that the children could get to work prepping a new vegetable patch. Firstly the guys got to work pulling out the weeds then armed with spades and forks they turned the soil. It didn't take long to complete the mission. Neil was grateful for their assistance and I'm sure it won't be long before GoodGym can help him again. The evenings are now getting darker so dust off those head-torches and reflective running gear! See you at the next session!
