On A Roll

Low clouds yesterday evening caused some misty and atmospheric scenes in Newham,a throwback to the famous smog of East London Luckily we don't have it quite so bad. Another week with healthy numbers, GG newbie Anthony was joined by second timers Elena, Melissa and Justine. We did a dabble of warming up, a haphazard random question as I was ill prepared, Melissa's "What object would you bring with you to a desert island?" A coconut tree, your mum and vodka were my personal favourites of the night.

A couple of miles later and we had reached our destination - Apple Cart Theatre. Painting was on the agenda, in what I can only describe as a highly intimate space. Like a Northern Line carriage at 8am, with your sweaty mates and some white paint. It was a simple and easy task, done with energy, ensuring we left at just past 8pm.

No intervals this week, I'm saving them for next week, as we'll most likely be at Mobile Garden City. sign up Get a coffee in beforehand, and let the running pour out of you, like a high powered shower. Massive Parkrun coming up in 2 weeks time, Hackney Marches - let's see who can get a brand spanking new pb, let's see who can eat more breakfast than Tim.

Have a cracking weekend guys, if you're looking to do a run with some company Brad (purnell3008@hotmail.com) is now in Marathon training and getting his weekend miles up, join him. Roughly 9mins per mile I believe - GoodGym Newham Weekend Run - let's make it an institution.

Catch you guys next week.
