6 Goodgymers (and an honourary GoodGym dog) put on their trainers and braved the rain to deliver leaflets in support of Myton Hospices and Pass the Smile for Ben advertising their Christmas tree collection service.

After a short jog to the start of our delivery area, we split into two teams with each team covering one side of the road. We had our work cut out with the houses quite spread out in this part of Leamington but we like a challenge and many hands make light work! Thankfully the rain eased off part way through and before we knew it, all the leaflets were delivered.

We then had a jog back to the start location giving everyone a chance to chat and get to know each other a bit better which was lovely to see. Thanks to Allan for back-marking the run. We covered 3.5km in total.

It was great to welcome back Graham and also nice to see Marina again for her second GoodGym mission with her lovely dog Captain who was a new addition to the team.

Nick made his GoodGym debut with us this evening and instantly took to the GoodGym spirit bringing enthusiasm and energy to an otherwise cold and damp evening - really great to meet you!
