Summer has arrived just in time for our Thursday group run!
Myself, Leanne and Miles met at the waterfront to run uphill to the 31st/9th scout hut. And for the first time this year, we didn't need a base layer, hooray! ☀
We met Prakash at the task and the 4 of us got stuck into painting the outside fence, which we started last week. We got a lot done in an hour and it was nice to catch up with everyone after the rain put a dampener on our plans last week ☔️. Ending with a lovely warm run home downhill, as the sun was starting to set 🌅.
Thanks to Leanne for the photos this week!

Wet weather meant a slightly different Thursday run this week!
Due to heavy rain during the day & rain forecasted in the evening, it meant we were unable to return to the scout hut to finish painting the fence that we started last week ☔️.
I headed out for a 5k around the waterfront instead, where the sun decided to break through for the duration ☀️! Managing to just about get home before the rain returned. Hoping for better weather next week so we can continue our great work on the fence.

Thursday evening has rolled around again and the 3 of us were back at the scout hut!
Myself, Miles and Leanne met at the waterfront ready to run and made our way up the ol' favourite Back Hamlet hill towards the scout hut.
Today's task involved painting again (which we now have great skills in from painting the hall!), but this time we were outside painting the fences surrounding the hut. An hour later and we had made a good dent in the fence and it was looking fresher than ever 👍🏻, with some of us covered in a few more paint splatters than others!
We then headed home, accompanied by a beautiful sunset on a lovely clear evening 🌅. We will be back to finish the fencing so why not join us on our next one?

The lighter evenings are here to stay, so off we went back to the scout hut for an outside task!
This evening, the two of us met at the waterfront and made our way to the 31st/9th Scout hut, running in the bright sunshine ☀.
It was quite an easy and short task tonight, where we tackled some weeding around the outside of the scout hut 🍃. It's nice to be able to do outside jobs now that the weather is nicer and the evenings are brighter!
