1 GoodGymer, 2 volunteering tasks and a whole lot of mud.

After running the course as a pacer, which was harder work than anticipated with a bit of slipping and sliding, I set to sorting finish tokens. A satisfying job in itself made all the better discussing with the group the benefits of staying around a little after crossing the finish line to meet new people, and getting the glow of knowing you've helped give back by volunteering. And that's what it's about.

All made for a great first time supporting the lovely team at Coldham’s Common. Thanks to Andrew for the warm welcome and we'll be back again soon.
