Another great evening packing up clothes at Traid and a short but intense little fitness session Once again there was a lot to do but we jumped at it with gusto!

Drop it like it's hot There was a lot of acitivity so we spent a full hour taking off the clothes off the racks, sorting out shoes and packing away clothes such as skirts, tops and trousers. Talking of trousers...We are now very experienced with 'dropping our trousers' but considering this was only the second good deed for Sophia, she really excelled at it;):

Quick burst of energy After we finished with the task Rosie, Sophia and Natasha made their way home by running and walking - great active travel! In the meantime Rachel, Rosalind, Rebecca, Ramon (the Four RRRR:)) and Julia easily jogged to the Town Square for some pre-dinner fitness activities: - We did two sets of interval sprints - 5 minutes each. Doesn't sound like a lot but folks were feeling the burn! - We did some arm strength exercises in between the sprinting - those triceps are going to say hello tomorrow;) - We finished with a nice stretch down!
