8 runners ran 11km! to help local charity Faithworks

Another lovely sunny day on the south coast as we gathered our strength for a mammoth 11Km!

A big welcome to Sophie and Liane who put in a massive effort on their first GoodGym adventure.

The gang snaked our way towards the seafront, dodging day-trippers ,buggies and random dogs. A quick regroup while I collected the keys for our task enabled Neil to put the group through some limbering up! A big effort followed through Boscombe towards our task which saw us cleaning the offices for local charity Faithworks. Andrea quickly got to grips with the hoovering while Neil and Jenni dusted for Britain. Liane made short work of the kitchen while Abi's window cleaning put Sinbad to shame!(Brookside fans anonymous) Sophie sorted out the kitchen table and Daryl headed straight for the loo.....although at some point i think there may have been a fight with a mop ?

Task done, we headed back out into the blazing sun, with song breaking out as we headed towards the seafront!

A quick hello to the goats and we swept back into town ,all quite relieved to be back to base with a fantastic distance covered. An awesome effort by all ....well done!

See you next week :)
