We had a top crew of VI runners and new guides come and join us for the weekly guide running social with Achilles International this week.

Regular guides Area Activator Simon and Caroline were on hand, but we also joined by Katy, Kat, Tom and Suraj for their first experiences of guide running. Our start location in Green Park is generally perfect for safe guiding (no road crossings, and an easily navigated 1 mile loop)- we just needed to be careful about other pedestrians making the most of the sun!

Everyone was able to complete 5km or more over the course of an hour (some guides chose to switch between guiding and navigation duties during the run- we were in the fortunate position where we had more guides than VI runners!). As a post-run treat, we were offered some ice lollies and ice cream to cool off. Andrew, Naqi, Esita and Tom had a great run and we enjoyed a good catch up as the sun went down.

Feel free to sign up here if you would like to join us next week!
