On a lovely clear and sunny (if a little windy) Sheffield eve three of us ran from The Showroom Cinema to meet with two more Goodgymers and local legend Jawad who is the mastermind behind the small park BIG RUN event that takes place annually in Meersbrook park to raise funds for a Palestinian charity and a children's charity.

The event is a 24hr run around the hilly park that starts at noon and ends at noon the next day. People can do as much or as little as they wish. More details can be seen on the photos of the leaflet, including the website to sign up and find out more info.

Our task this week was to help raise awareness of the run by leafletting the local streets near by to the park to try and rustle up some local support and entries. We took maps of the area and tried to cover the areas Jawad had us focussing on.

Michelle even brought a wooden spoon to push the leaflets through letter boxes safely, TOP TIP!

After a good 30mins we had covered a decent number of houses and dished out a load of leaflets. From there we all went our separate ways for our dinners, whether it was Tony cooking for us at home or double wrapped mexican burritos! MMMMMMMMMMMM!
