Woahh, mysterious Ken, we ran so close to you

10 regulars and 3 new runners ran to Linnet Drive to deliver leaflets for the J's Hospice

We met at ARU, and welcomed three new runners to the group: Harriet, Sam and Manali.

After explaining the task (delivering Chelmsford Marathon leaflets for the J's hospice) and asking our regular members to behave normally for the new runners, I took an average group photo (sorry Katie), we did a little warm up, and set off.

With Rich knowing Linnet Drive and its vicinity, he was our excellent leader to navigate there and back. He even managed to pop in and see his mum, who heckled us as we ran past. Russell was keen to back mark, and he did an excellent job. Thank you both very much for your help this evening!

We agreed that the quickest method to deliver the leaflets was to split into two groups, and caterpillar our way down the street. We managed to deliver plenty of leaflets, and of course hope this encourages people to sign up.

For our jog back, we took a slightly different route. While reminiscing about the early GoodGym days, we pondered the existence of our Goodgym Chelmsford founder, Ken, who to many newer members is a complete mystery.

Thanks to all for coming, and please also join us at the Golden Fleece pub quiz next Thursday, from 8pm!
