Lawn Again

Eight perfectly formed Goodgym runners gathered at the usual spot on a pleasant sunny evening to do good and keep fit.

Unfortunately our scheduled task was cancelled at short notice but as ever Tara wasn't going to let that stop us. After an initial warm up,which due to Brighton festival preparations had to be held in Pool Valley next to the bins, we then proceeded to run the 2.5km to the lifeguard hut just past the King Alfred Swimming Pool.

After turning round we headed to Hove Lawns where Tara had hatched a demanding but enjoyable fitness session of continuous reps such as star jumps,squats,sit ups,press ups and the dreaded burpees which rose in number as we jogged to each lawn ending in 10 reps of each. We also had to plank until the last person had finished the set of reps but because I was the slowest I wouldn't know about that!

We finished off on the lawns by playing a game of tag...the first person...Tara in this case,had to catch someone by tagging them. That pair then joined hands and did the same and so on and so on until the last person stood. Well in this case Roy and Paul both evaded capture so we called it a draw.

We then jogged to the West Pier and carried out a quick beach clean which even in ten minutes filled a whole bag sadly and then headed back to base and on our merry way.
