Back to Track
6 GoodGymers made their way 3.1km to help their local community in Brent.

Five wonderful GoodGym-ers braved the weather and came out for a run despite no task!
With no task we were left with two options
- Hill Sprints
or
- a risky Track Session
Being GG Brent we went for the risky option and made our way back to our former home: Willesden Sports Centre. With Dinesh taking the lead we explained our situation and the fact that we had used the track and the centre before and after a while we were allowed in!
Once on the track we went through a thorough warm up and then we were faced with a couple of choices. A more repetitive session or a session with decreasing distances but increasing effort. We went for the latter.
With everyone lined up we did the following:
- 1200m at 50%
- 800m at 60%
- 400m at 80%
Each bout was followed by a 2 min rest and everyone really pulled out the stops for the last 400m with everyone coming in under two minutes.
After everyone had got their breath back we we went for a cool down jog and then we were done.
Well done all!
