This evening we visited EACH (East Anglian Children's Hospice) and their charity shop on Unthank Road to help in the shop and do a leaflet drop around the local area.

Both Vicky and Karen have now past 10 Group Runs... keep putting in the hard work ladies.

We started with a warm up outside The Forum - no rude interruptions this week, just an old lady who joined in with our skipping.

It was just over 1km to the EACH charity shop and when we arrived Sally was there to greet us with the Xmas Tunes playing in the shop. 2 people got to stay in the shop to help sort items out and the rest of the crew went on a leaflet and charity bag drop before they returned and helped in the shop... apart from Bill who put mud from his trainers everywhere and then had to hover it up ;-) haha.

I'm not sure if the most disturbing moment of the evening was me trying to dance like Michael Jackson with a hat on or trying to sing Walking in the Air by Aled Jones... the jury is out on that one.

We then set back off to The Forum on a slightly longer route back plus some wall step ups on the way.

Next week is our last run before Christmas and we're revisiting Angelica's Rainbow and the Marlpit Arms... where they're also putting on mince pies and mulled wine for us! Despite myself, Rob, Calum, Robert & Jasmine all returning from our festive trip to Prague/Krakow early that morning - most of us shall see you there!
