Six runners gathered on a balmy early mid summer evening at Eaton Park by the bandstand. Whilst we gathered and chatted we were privy to a soothing gospel choir practicing in the background.

We welcomed new runner Sussana on her first run.

The task was to deliver information in the form of a poster to households to advertise online support services for their community. After recieving instructions from Steve, we embarked on our mission and struck off across Eaton Park.

It was a hot sunny evening and quite difficult to run so we went around as a group delivering our public service broadcast information. Lots of people were out and about so it was nice to engage with the local community and there were lots of smiles.

We had a successful mission - the only hiccup when we realised one of the roads was located in Pensylvania, USA. We considered running dowen to Heathrow to catch a flight but then decided against it as we thought Steve would probably not be impressed.

After we finally found the missing Norvic Drive (meant getting a bit lost!!) we completed our task delivery and ran/walked back to the bandstand to cycle home.

Well done everyone who took part!!
