A hardy bunch of GG Yorkies assembled to help out the annual Brass Monkey half marathon race once again. Various roles were covered including marshalling and manning the water stations. One not so hardy GG-er (me) was nice and dry as I was on baggage duty for the first time and it was great fun! There were several GG folk running and lots of familiar faces from other local running clubs. Well done to everyone for doing a great job out in the rain this morning - your support was very much appreciated by all the runners.

On a very cold, and quite damp evening 11 super keen Yorkies turned out to brighten up the area around the Acorn rugby club, which often gets quite littery.

We split into two groups to head clockwise and anti-clockwise round the block. Time flies when you're picking up endless plastic bottles and sweetie wrappers, and it was soon time to head back to base, with a bag each filled up. It certainly wasn't hard to complete our "pick up 100 pieces of litter" January bingo square! Best find goes to Michael for the numberplate.

A quick photo and it was time to head home/go for a freezing cold run, according to preference.
