7 runners made their way to BSARCS to help with renovating their indoor space.

Tonight's team included regulars James, Sharon and Jason, Sheffield tourists Celine and Caroline, and newcomer Sandra.

As tonight was an introductory session, with new runner Sandra on board, we enjoyed a gentle jog a short distance to BSARCS, where we were to help out with a painting task.

We met with Amy, who showed us which of the rooms needed a lick of paint, and we set to work with rollers, brushes, and a big tub of old faithful, magnolia. We discovered that new member Sandra is a teacher, so she and Jason had a lot to talk about! We also enjoyed chatting with Amy about the work that BSARCS do and their plans for the future.

A brief run back up to base, a nice stretch, and it was farewell for another few days. Thanks guys!
