Group Run: Litter Pick Bingo + Monthly Social [Peckham Bowls]

It's Wednesday night and we're doing it right...it's also our group run night!

In this group run, we will do a loop of Peckham Rye Park before arriving at the Round Cafe in the middle of Peckham Rye Park to split into mini teams for a friendly competitive "litter pick bingo" South London style! Teams have 30 minutes to find 25 unique items on the list and we times it by the distance the team covers (i.e. if your team only finds 12 items and covers 4k that equals to 48 points, yet if another team found all 25 items but only covered 2k, they would have racked up 50 points)! Teams are deducted a point for every MINUTE they are late.

It might not be the first Wednesday of the month as due to the closing time of Peckham Rye Park in August and the fact we want at least an hour to try out bowls at Peckham Bowls, I have moved this monthly social a week earlier. We will have a rink (or two depending on numbers) to try this sport out. There's also a bar on site and we can order in pizzas. I will calculate the litter pick bingo scores and announce the winning team.
