Report written by Leicester runner
It was a lovely late summers evening for tonights run and task.
8 runners left the DMU for a leisurely run along the canal paths to The Lohana Center. Lindsay led the group at a fair old pace, obviously getting ready for her Great North Run.
A source of amusement en route was watching a lady ,under her husbands guidance, try to steer a long boat through a lock gate, which was only half open! On her completion , in true GG style we gave her a round of applause.
On our arrival at The Lohana Center we were greeted by Nilesh who showed us to the room where the windows needed cleaning. A task we have performed in the past so it didn't take long for the GG runners to set to work.
Armed with cloths we did our best to bring a sparkle and shine to the windows.The lighting wasn't too good so the pictures are mainly silhouettes!
A break for some well earned light refreshments and we were off to Abbey Park for a short hill session, up hill effort and downhill recovery then reversed.
We would like to wish our GG buddy Lee Melbourne a speedy recovery.
