45 runners ran 6.0k to help reform the signpost gardens and surrounding areas.

What a fabulous launch night! 45 runners/Amazing humans, joined us at Lifeleisure Grandcentral where we were joined by our partners Age UK Stockport and Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council. We had a gentle warm up to set our legs for all the hills in the evenings session (sorry!!) After 3 shorts breaks waiting for the magic green man we started stomping up hill number one to our location of Signpost Stockport for Carers in Heaton Moor. The group were amazing, everyone chatted and laughed (grimaced maybe?) up hill one, slight race down hill, where we then ran up the 3rd and biggest hill........(sorry again) Eventually we made it to Signpost where the lovely Julia and Catherine met us with warm smiles and all the equipment we needed for our task of arranging the garden, pulling up moss, painting planters, cleaning windows and sprucing the area up for carers. It looks brilliant, a tranquil, colourful space for people to take some time out to relax, and the windows are also gleaming! Well done team, together we made a huge impact. As well as our run, the night also included a fun fast blast fitness session where we planked and press up'd around the grass, here people were able to work as hard or as easy as they liked.

After the task was complete we made our way back to Lifeleisure for a stretch off, de-breif and a huge massive thank you. People were still smiling at the end of the session, no more than myself who still hasn't stopped smiling, I'm still overwhelmed by the greatness of you all, the atmosphere, energy and sense of community was wonderful. Well done to all of you, Same time next week then eh??..................................no hills next week, promise.
