Continuing our task from last week the wonderful Hammersmith and Fulham crew help to deliver flyers to promote a new furniture reuse charity shop on Dawes Road called Furnish.

After a little warm up we headed over to the shop to see the outside. From there we split into two teams one delivering flyers around West Brompton and the other south of Dawes Road.

After a speedy delivery of all the flyers we met up in Lillie Road Rec for a look at our running technique.

Today's focus: * Posture - remember the helium balloon holding your head up * Arms - keeping them at a nice right angle and not crossing the body * Knees - practice knee drive and high knees

Next, we put that technique in to practice by having the two teams from earlier compete in a two minute relay. Plain clothes won!

Which technique will you focus on this week?

Happy running,

PSB,
OUT.
