Led by Simon Fitzmaurice

Tracey, Lucy, Simon and local running volunteer Aurelien joined Andrew and Tom for our weekly guide running session with Achilles International. We meet up at Maida Vale Underground Station in Winter every Thursday at 6pm, and walk together to Paddington Recreation Grounds Track for our VI running session. Andrew ran a speedy and impressively consistent 6km on the track, while Tom completed a 10km while progressively getting faster throughout (almost losing his guide runners on the last lap!).

This week, we visited the Elgin pub just over the road for hot chocolate, refreshments and hot chips to warm up on a brisk December evening. We'll be back again next week!
