Last night, the weekly Achilles International crew met up at Stratford Underground station (Westfield exit) for a smashing group run in the light! Such a difference compared to our usual night time runs in Winter!

Andrew and Mario the guide dog returned for a easy paced walk and jog after a super impressive performance at the London Marathon on the weekend.

New guide Meliza ran with Mark Colby for a loop of Waterden Park. Luc did some excellent running with Mark D (after running Manchester Marathon two weeks ago- great job!). Dan ran with Mark N and newish guide runner Charlotte for laps around West Ham stadium. And Peter did a stellar job co-guiding Tom D with Rob on his first session in Stratford.

Wonderful running everyone! We will be back at the following location next week!
