A select team of GG Worthing runners headed to part 2 of our weeding task at Windsor Lawns this evening.

An especially warm welcome to Helena from neighbouring Brighton. It was so good to welcome you to GG Worthing and please accept a big GG cheer from us all for your energy and contribution (plus cycling home afterwards)

After a friendly and informative welcome from local park ranger Duncan we set about doing our best to make Windsor beds look welcoming again.

After 4 weeks of GG tasks it never ceases to amaze me just how much we can achieve in such short a time with a such a small but determined work force. To all my team tonight please accept a huge JG GG pat on the back ( This is even bigger than a GG cheer ! )

After reluctantly leaving our task we then headed on a steady and scenic run through 2 parks to stop and bask in reflected glory of our GG Worthing debut task all agreed we need to return again soon to visit our friends of Victoria Park. After a cracking lamp post interval (and cone ) training session along a misty sea front we finished the evening with some squat and lunge drills. Special mention to Gill for her dedication and great progressive ideas, Beth for week on week fighting Southern Rail to get to the session , Belinda for her total dedication and evolving fitness and Ed for his energy and smiles in the last 2 weeks . Thanks guys and girls you totally rock ! After just 4 short weeks how I love Monday evenings.

To all look out for exciting task force event / social coming your way soon

Windsor Lawns
Seafront community lawns

This relatively small ornamental grassed area is situated on the seafront at East Worthing and is popular with those strolling along the promenade. This site was renamed in 2003, Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee Year. It is now known as Windsor Lawns. In 2004 the new planting was completed. In March 2014 a range of 10 items of outdoor fitness equipment was installed. The funding for this came from West Sussex County Council and the equipment is similar to gym and stress equipment and was designed to give the user a whole body work out. The equipment also allows for mobility improvement as some items do not involve lifting a weight.
