Speed it and eat

Another session with teams! We ran 5km for LinkAge and then sprinted, sweated and ate lollies for ourselves.

Team Nunhead ran to Frendsbury Gardens, Telegraph Hill Park and Nunhead Green and some local shops to deliver posters and leaflets to recruit volunteers for Link Age UK. Team Dulwich made it to Grove Vale Library and Lordship Lane as well as a load of local shops for their posters.

The challenge was that each team had to deliver the posters and leaflets but also get some snaps of their adventures: best photo (read best pose), not-so-random acts of kindness and spelling out 'GoodGym' by taking photos of letters on road signs and shop signs.

It was a ginormous effort made even better by the night turning to winter all of a sudden. Team Dulwich had the edge with their Beatles / Abbey Road-esque picture and so got first dibs of the sweet bag.

In the syrup of friendship, team Nunhead still got sweets and there was joy all round at refreshers, jelly tots and drumsticks.

Not wanting to give them an easy ride, after two weeks of endurance focused running...

I feel the need, the need for speed

Using trusty trees as our markers along the Rye, we had 60effort runs, 70-80% effort runs, 80-90% sprints and then an all out effort to ensure ultimate sweat effect. NO ONE took the shorter tree route. YOU'RE ALL SUPERHEROES.

Then we skipped without arms and then with arms and realised how helpful our arms are for running. And skipping is a lot more fun. If you were wondering if there are many ways you can impersonate a crab, then GoodGym Southwark has a minimum of 3 ways. You'll have to come along if you want to discover.

After all of that, you'd think we would have been done but some final glute thrusters, walk out press ups and mountains climbers were completed!

ROMEO DONE!

Time to jog back and eat all of the sweets!
