First of all welcome Jenny Hide to Goodgym. This is her first session. Altogether 8 runners ran in light drizzle from The Showroom up to Lynwood Gardens. We were met by David who then gave us instructions and introduced himself to us. Nice and friendly David gave us various tools, gloves and led us to the cycling path which was overgrown . We were then given further instructions of what needed doing. We worked in pairs, cutting, pruning. pulling weeds out , sweeping and showelling the greenery, leaves and branches to designated areas. Lots of stinging nettles needed attention and pulling or pruning back. Fortunately 8 of us and strong, experienced David managed to clear the cycling path to make it safe for pedestrians and cyclists.
