12 painted the ideas hub and had a run in the park

Another fun session painting the panels in the ideas hub and I think we are close to finishing! We began by welcoming Newbies Barbara and Cheryl who were instantly sharing the banter with the group as we added more paint to the remaining panels around the hub. there was a meeting going on at 7.30 so we got stuck in with the task and made sure we were finished before the meeting started. by then we had painted the remaining panels on the stairs, and both end walls upstairs, the remainder of the barriers at the top of the stairs and the panels on the wall to the left. Essentially everything was white!

We managed to get everything washed up on time and headed off for a run through the park. As i am recovering from Sunday's marathon I decided to back mark and Greg led the team out and we regrouped at several check points. at the underpass we split into those who wanted to push the pace and do a slightly longer route and those who took a more direct route and we all ran off towards admirals park.

We decided no to do hills abut ran a flatish relay with teams split into 2 distance marked out by lamp posts. apologies for those who had difficulties in change over as we realized we were a little in the dark at the change over point!

After the sprints we had a steadier run back again split into a longer route led by Greg and the slightly shorter route back to the viaduct, where we regrouped and jogged back for a stretch.

Really good work by all in both the running and the paint work, the ideas hub do truly appreciate it, and the space will be able to be used by more people once the painting is complete.

catch up with you next week!
