15 runners gathered virtually from their sofas, studys and tent (Paul and family) for this week's quiz, which was co-hosted by Sam and Ashleigh.

The quiz had an educational theme, Sam gathered inspiration from her calander and Ashleigh from her bookshelf and the week's homeschooling adventures.

To warm up, the ice-breaker question was "What is your favourite book?". Roald Dahl got the most recommendations, especially from mini goodgymers, Luke and Eli.

The quiz categories were: The Olympics, botany, biology and literature. Runners are now more clued up on knowing their 'Love Apples' from their 'Deathcaps' and we cleared up "who killed Nancy" and exactly "what was Jonathan Livingston?". We also learnt that dibbers are not just for stirring the botony in your gin!

Once the scores were in and team Stuart and Tracy were crowned triple champions, conversation soon reverted to gin, lawn mowers and the best place to keep your hoe!
