Report written by Jonny Carter
This week we headed to Stanhope garden for another bit of green fingered action. Liam did the front marking and Charlotte the back. We ran the just over 3k to the centre, on arrival we were told we could do ‘what we like’ in the garden! Yep they must trust us that much now, they don’t even need to direct us! This weeks pun came from Mini, as we literally were ‘running wild’ in the garden! Well not exactly, plenty of weeding took place actually!
Once done we headed back to base, but of course first it was fitness session time. Short, fast efforts off short, fast recoveries was the order of the day! Yep ten lots of 20 seconds with just a measly 10 seconds recovery. George and Liam sprinted off into the distance. Miriam and Naomi pushed hard on each rep and Fiona put in some hard graft. John preparing for his assault on the BRAT 5k road race tomorrow night, held back somewhat, to preserve those legs. As ever everybody worked well, we even had some impressed on lookers for good measure!
We then had the infamous up hill run back to 1000 Trades. Karin even nearly had a collision with a Seagull on the way back! If it’s after the sea, me thinks it’s lost in Brum! Anyway everyone arrived back in one piece, albeit somewhat tired, after a great workout, so job done!
Next week we will be out doing good again, it would be great if you could join us sign up here.
