Storm Barra is flexing its muscles around the UK, bringing wind, rain and a cold front!

So a bunch of Goodgymers went out to spread good cheer and seek the lights of Corfe Mullen!

No mention of fancy dress in the remit but these are pro's these runners so it was a bunch of cheerily Christmas dressed runners that showed up despite weather warnings! I believe there was mutterings of Mulled Wine, mince pies and good cheer that brought smiles and runners!

A 4 mile route along the streets of Corfe Mullen showed Barass has managed to reach a few lights, reindeer and Santa's but many pretty lights along the way gave smiles in the bleak darkness. On the return leg, the Barass threw a bit of hale into our faces but no match for this hardy bunch who sped up to get back on hearing words 'cake' and 'Mulled wine'.

Elizabeth had kindly offered her house as a stop for a Mulled Wine and mince pies and even added in a bit of cake! Thank you Liz!

Lovely to have Lisa again with us, back running again!

Robert enjoyed the cake so much he took home a doggy bag, you enjoy Rob!

Well done to Patricia for running last night and tonight in all elements!

Maria big welcome to task force!
