mince pies, a brew and lots of cleaning to do!

Tonight 10 Goodgymers got into the festive spirit! Meeting at the usual spot of Lifeleisure Grandcentral at 6.30pm, we starting with some light mobilisation and a gentle warm up before starting to run to the wonderful location of St Matthews church to meet the wonderful Pam Robinson.

This weeks destination was pretty close so was a perfect beginners run.

At the location we were greeted my Pam and her Christmas music, there was plenty o jobs to be done, including……hoovering, carpet cleaning, polished, wiping, windowsill cleaning, to name just a few! A small break was had in the middle to re-energise with a brew and a mince pie, which was enjoyed by all.

We then set back to it like little elves making sure every pew was dusted and cleaned in time for all the festive Celebrations the church has going on.

I had a fitness session planned, but we didn’t get to complete it as we were tooooo busy with a tasks, everyone was happy that this week we were inside!

As ever, and the proof is in the photographs, Goodgym Stockport crew did a amazing job as they always do, we made a massive improvement to the church, it looks amazing.

It was wonderful to have Damien back this week, thanks a bunch dude for coming along, I hope it wasn’t just the mince pies that enticed you back!

It was also great to see tourists John, Jas and Nicola from Crewe, you did a totally wonderful job in all you did, good luck with your adventures and we will make a visit over to see you when your all set up.

Massive good luck to David doing his marathon this week, keep us posted on how you get on. Anne myself and my poor children are planning to help out at Burgage Parkrun this Sat, 9th if anyone would like to come along then feel free.

I have set a run challenge (see dodgy photo included!) of 12 runs of Christmas, the aim being to run 12 times between the 1st of Dec and the big day itself, it doest matter and speed or distance, you just need to fasten up your laces and go!

Lastly, don't forget next week is our Christmas social, so bring your baubles and Christmas spirit.

Until then, happy running,
