Old Faces & New Places

On Monday Evening 8 Goodgymers met at Brent Mencap, the biggest group all year ! We welcomed Olivia from Greenwich who is touring the London areas , and we welcomed back Helen visiting from Rotterdam and Liz from down South.

a traffic jam plus A mix up over meet up points meant we missed Samina and James who hope to join us soon

We warmed up by each calling out our name and an exercise , then set off together to Abbey Road community centres new venue . Liz led the way and Tabitha back marked We soon arrived where we met Jason who had stacks of leaflets printed advertising the new centre and the volunteering opportunities available. Abbey Community Centre is a vibrant multicultrual meeting place that provides a safe environment an a warm welcome to its users. Activities vary from fitness, gardening and IT, with plenty of educational, recreational and social opportunites.

We split into two groups of four and ran up Belsize park road delivering the leaflets... while dreaming of owning any of the very grand houses

When finished our piles we re grouped and ran back to Willesden green . All the running had tired a few of us out so we walked the last uphill stretch.

Overall it was a 9 km round trip , great job everyone on trememdous running! We waved goodbye to those headed home and a group of us stopped off in beer and burger to replenish all those lost calories!
