Clean and sprint

10 runners took a gentle jog up Rye Lane followed by a brutal sprint in the not so warm June evening.

So it was pretty cool to be able to make it shiny again whilst reading loads of positive messages.

We also got a few concerned locals checking that we weren't cleaning any of the messages off.

Jess had kindly bought us some jelly babies once we'd written our own message on the wall. For some, this may have been unwise as, using the Surrey Canal path, we set off on some sprints.

*Jogging warm up, sprint and jog, sprint and jog, sprint, sprint, sprint, sprint. *

After a quick catching of breath, we were off on a gentle meander back down Rye Lane whilst humming the One Show theme tune.

Massive thanks to Helena who brought home made banana and chocolate flapjack along to go with our cool down.
