13 people ran 4km to donate clothing items to Suited for Success followed by our first GoodGym Brum Social

Fortunately after this mornings autumnal weather it had largely dried up by this evening and although rather windy it wasn’t a bad night for a run. It was good to welcome Owen to tonight’s run who Amy kindly brought along.

Sack race

Once back markers and front markers were sorted, we were on our way to Suited for Success, with sacks full of donations. It was just a short run down there and we were warmly greeted by the team. We had various photos followed by a tour of the premises. Then we were on our way again.

On the way back we joined the canal, once arriving at Brindley Place, we did a bit of squatting and lunging and then split into two groups, for the last ¾ of a mile stretch along the canal. one group going slightly faster. I lead the fast group, well I say lead until Neal put in some great work burning up the towpath virtually Mo Farah esk! Owen also put a great shift in. The other group weren’t far behind putting in great effort all the way back. We then took a steady run back to 1000 Trades, ready for the exciting bit…….

Social

Once back we had our first GoodGym social, it’s was great to see everyone involved. I left at 8.45pm with still plenty of the group there, so if you do end up down Broad Street, please do send me the pictures, I will be more than happy to add them to the run report! Especially if you have any of Garry throwing some shapes on the dance floor!

Next week we will be out doing good again, it would be great if you could join us sign up here.
