Tonight 10 runners ran to help at Parkview care home.
The change in temperature and risk of rain didn't deter the hardcore Bexley team!
We met inside Crook Log leisure centre ready for tonights task.
After a quick head count and warmup, the walkers headed off on the direct route to the task, while the runners took a slightly longer route.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by the team at Parkview who had drinks at the ready. We went through to the garden area where there were 2 gazebos which needed dismantling and packing away. After a while the walkers arrived and helped fold down the gazebos, take apart the poles and fold the tarpaulin cover to pack away.
Once both gazebos were out of sight, we went through to the 2 mini buses which needed cleaning.
It was broomin' marvelous!
With buckets, brooms and hose pipe at the ready we set to work cleaning both minibuses in our darkest task since the beginning of summer!
Both buses were sparkling clean and it was time to leave.
Great work tonight Bexley!
Until next time...
Happy running!
