Last night 5 wonderful GoodGym runners bit the dust in the best possible way!!

We rendezvoused at Bodyline Studio and we had a GG regular but Ealing newbie in the form of Katie! Awesome work on your first Ealing run. Also we had some of the best running dedication I have ever seen, Ankit forgot his running gear but ran with us anyway in shirt and trousers! If I'm ever having a bad running day again Ankit I will think of you and your perseverance!

Then we started off on our way, temperatures a bit chilly but of course as soon as the running started the cool air was very welcome! On our arrival there was some free cake and snacks which was just awesome! And we made our way down to the spooky basement to sweep up and get it looking nice and tidy. There was some excellent window cleaning by Rebecca and Ankit whilst Graham did a truly excellent job with the longest sweeping brush of all time. He even excelled in the lunge-walk-and-sweep technique, really everyone should sweep that way! We had a quick break with some functional lunge walks and before we knew it, it was back to reception for a sandwich snack refill.

Before the journey back we completed a nice dynamic warm up with squats, sprinting on the spot and the old lateral jumps and of course some lunge walk...we just can't get enough. Then we set off on 3.5km back to Ealing Broadway including a rather cheeky hill which seemed to come out of nowhere...hill sprint session I hear you all say!! Hehe.

So it was yet another awesome evening with truly great people! I can't wait to see you all again soon!
