Day of concrete
6 GoodGymers made their way to help the Windmill Hill City Farm in Bristol.

On a chilly Friday morning, 6 GoodGym runners gathered to remove the top layer of a footpath around Windmill Hill City Farm. Given the frosty weather one may assume this mission was doomed to be a day of defeat as the topsoil was frozen and hard as concrete. Nevertheless, the GoodGymers set about tackling the icy path with spats and shovels and sure enough soon found a technique combining sheer force, the right angle of leverage, and additional help of using one's (frozen) foot a sledgehammer to chip away on the concrete-like material. A tough job that will have to be continued once the weather is a bit warmer.
