Creme de la Cif

*12 runners ran 6km to Mencap to help out with some cleaning *

Tonight, we had a treble of exciting news - Joel wore his 100 good deeds t-shirt AND new trainers (although he didn't want to show off!), Rachel and James G completed the Billericay 10k on Sunday, and Rachel, James G and myself have all now completed over 1,000 km in 2018! Well done everyone, even Joel for just getting a new outfit.

We warmed up a little and set off to Mencap. Arriving ten minutes early, there was nothing for us to do but extra laps. Rich led us on a lap round the block, but we were still too early. Rachel and myself knew how close we were to hitting our 2018 target, so we led a 200m up the road and back. This saw us arrive in perfect time to meet Kevin from Mencap.

We were shown to the chairs and cleaning equipment, and I read out the very specific directions to clean them. The door bell rang, and Adam arrived in perfect time to get started. Joel led with the vacuuming, and everyone else followed with the creamy Cif and water. Ally and Henry were overwhelmed by the cleaning product and method, and we all hope that they haven't ruined our relationship with Mencap forever.

Once finished we set off on a slightly longer route back through Moulsham and Central Park, arriving at ARU just before 8pm.

Don't forget - we are going to the pub quiz at the Golden Fleece on Thursday 22nd November from 7.30pm

Next week we are heading to Broomfield Hospital with Gerry run leading.

Thanks for coming everyone, and see you soon!
