Today's mission was a marathon session of running laps.

5 members of GoodGym Warwick and Leamington turned up today to help run Marathon Kids based at St Nicholas Park, Warwick.

Marathon Kids is a local charity that offers free running sessions to children and their families, due to Covid the sessions we halted and we were lucky to be part of the relaunch this weekend.

The GoodGymers took on the role of children and families to enable the lovely leader, Cassie, to practice all the new Covid protocalls. This resulted in some games which seemed to be on pare with the GoodGym warm up. Becky has stolen a few ideas for her next fitness session.

Once warmed up the children then run/walk as many laps as they can in 20 mins. It seems you can't stop a GoodGymer running and a few of them joined in the children, although they were all beaten by a 9 year old...

The children loved running and it was lovely to be part of the first session back. Join us in November for the next session.
