Rain all day stopped play at the church where some painting was needed. We met at the gym hoping the clouds wouldn't follow through with any more of the wet stuff and set off for a pre-litter picking jog.

Andy explained he was picker extraordinaire after his festival volunteering at the weekend, which Jane watched with home comforts although I do understand you could buy a ticket for your chair if you wanted to bring it with you.

Sallyann proved she should have been a hostage negotiator after getting exactly what she wanted for upcoming retirement. Maybe it's not too late to retrain. Leah didn't let the chain link fence stand in her way and aggressively retrieved junk that people were clearly tossing into difficult spaces for fun (why?!).

Fay will be available for any eligible bachelors to try on the abandoned flipflop over the weekend but I'm not sure that it will guarantee a marriage proposal, possibly some Marriage's animal feed given the location.

Whoop whoop it's the sound of the GoodGym!

Time for another run, arriving on a warm summer eve and greeting Nicola, we had a chat and I'd planned a nice circular route to be led by Jane. We headed off into the light night. Hopefully Mohammed's leg will heal up soon and he can get back to running with us! He has a parkrun PB to attempt!

We chatted as we ran (of course) , Erin lamenting that her days of being able to attend multiple raves a weekend have passed her by, Joel lamenting he didn't have a million pounds in cash to spend on a house, and Ben not lamenting at all that he is going to Switzerland next week!

Superb job there everyone, Pastor Chris was very impressed and grateful at the amount we did, and that we survived the flesh wounds from all the brambles. Any excuse for me to wield an excessively sized scythe is always good.

Fay headed back to meet us at the gym and we set off. She called the police en route about a broken down car on a bend. Another good deed done.

Although we dwindled in numbers on the route back we still had strong appetite for cake, which Andy had clearly home made. Jane even took one home for Rich and he was kind enough to send a photo (NSFW) of him enjoying it. No good deed for that.

Can we promise cake next week? You never know! (But you defo got spoiled this first run, Nicola!)
