This evenings task was to carry out a deep clean at the foodbank but then a last minute request from a local charity to deliver leaflets to highlight up and coming martian race

On this beautiful evening Wayne, Nadia, Kirsty, & James met at Woking leisure centre. Katie ran from home and met us at the foodbank. Julie also met us at the foodbank as she came straight from work. Adam who is currently nursing a injured ankle which happened during the Richmond 1\2 marathon walked to the foodbank Hats off to him 👍🏻

James brought along a ruck sack which had over a 1000 leaflets which Kirsty volunteered to put on for the first half of the run (Up until we got the the hills 🤣). While running we were hearing about Nadia recent trip to Singapore it sounded amazing. Once we got the the first hill Wayne took the ruck sack and continued running up the hill to the foodbank. When we arrived we met the rest of the gang along with Allison who gave us our tasks.

Nadia, Adam, & James were on sweeping & hoovering duties. Kirsty was giving the shelves a good wipe down, while Julie & Katie were following behind with the mops. Wayne was doing a littles bit of everything 😄.

in no time we had given the whole place a deep clean and the place was looking and smelling fresh. We took our customary photo on the famous stairs said our good byes and headed off to the apartment blocks to deliver the leaflets for te up and coming Martian Race 👽. With James knowledge of all the blocks we managed to hit the first block which had 76 letter boxes. After that we went to the 2nd block were we did another 124 letterboxes. In total we did 442 apartments which was pretty good going 🏃🏼‍♂️.

Once we finished we headed back to the leisure centre and said our goodbye's.

This Sunday we have two tasks. Volunteering at Junior Park Run And The All Aboard club building the big train set. We have reached the max amount of volunteers for the All Aboard but plenty still needed for park run.

Next Wednesday we are running to the All Saints Parish Church In Woodham. We will be meeting at WWF by the steps along the canal.

See you then. 😄
