12 GoodGymers turned out to flyer drop in and around our start location at Sheffield United's Bramall Lane. Our group run took us from our start location through the streets covering roughly 4km. The warm up run was gentle and as social as ever. The group is becoming very close knit now and capable of anything.

The Task

The original task was cancelled at the 11th hour as the room we were supposed to be painting had not been emptied ready for us. We adapted our plans and went out doing some good old fashioned leaflet marketing. We delivered to most of the terraced houses in the local area. Hopefully we will recruit some extra Goodgymers to join our merry gang.

The Session

Once again we tackled the hill through Meersbrook Park. This week our focus shifted from cardio to muscular strength and endurance. The group stayed together on the first ascent and comfortably climbed the hill. Once at the summit we carried out some upper body exercises. We then headed down to attack the hill individually. Everyone put in a great effort and paced the climb perfectly. Awesome.

Then back to base

On arrival back at the hotel we did a number of further strength focused exercises, some stretches and called it a night

Next week we are heading over to Heeley city farm again to work on the kids play area. It will be a great task and we will have lots of fun. You can register for it here I love Sheffield

A huge thanks to everyone once again. We are a great little running community and it will only grow stronger. We salute you!!!

God bless Sheffield
