Spring into action
Tuesday 3rd March
Written by Michael
Our first litter picking task since the mammoth January challenge, we are here to stay active and get things done.
5 goodgymers met outside the glassworks, or usual start location. After a catch up chat, we made the decision to walk out to the beginning of the task as one group.
Lots of chatting on the way, where we have lived, life experience, general chat..... Now lets get to the task.
Michael handed out gloves, litter pickers and bags and it was time to start. A few wondering eyes from passers by as we set up in a corner of the street.
Hopefully the goodgym logo will be emblazoned on their minds after tonight.
2 teams set out, litter pickers and ploggers. The conversations continued as we cleaned the streets, filling bags with various items including a drinks dispenser, not a television... It was too big for the bag. Michael even found himself distracted when the crew pointed out a spring base from a mattress, rusty and old looking, but still full of bounce.
Like a toddler on a trampoline
As the plogging came to an end, it was time to drop our bags at a designated council bin for collection. Take a group photo, and then head back to our start location to complete the 5km.
