Want me to hold your Wotsit - Jan, 2016

Hehehe. Woooow, amazing GoodGym evening!! 6 GoodGymmers ran/sprinted 3km to help paint a room in some sheltered accommodation!

It started with some awesome dynamic stretching in Haven Green...missing our last Haven Green friends! The plan was to beat a Strava section ideally up and down the hill! So lots of stretching and warming up which are super duper important before running!

Everyone put in an excellent effort, powering up the hill! We arrived at the house before we knew it and with the help of the wonderful Sandra we set to work painting one of the rooms! It was quite intimate (see pics) but sooo much fun! We smashed most of the walls with excellent height work from Graham (and myself), precision work from Alex, Catherine and Jan and excellent patch covering awesomeness from Emily!!

It led to such questions as 'how many goodgymmers can you fit into one small room'. We think the answer is definitely 6 maximum!

Then we sprinted back down to Bodyline Studio and (to talk about me!) I won a strava segment, QOM boom!! Take that castlebar hill downhill....2nd on the uphill though so that is next weeks challenge.

Overall an amazing painting effort, everyone did so well and I had the best fun time. See you all next week!!
