Chelmsford

Community mission

Water station for the running nation

3 GoodGymers made their way to help the Farleigh Hospice in Chelmsford.

Led by Chelmsford runner

Laurie, David and myself supported the Farleigh Hospice Virtual London Marathon, crewing the mid-point water station from 12-6pm, keeping the runners motivated and hydrated as they raised money for the hospice!

The weather was gloomy, rainy, cold and windy but that did not stop these exceptional runners from smiling as they passed, fulfilling their running dreams. The whole event even inspired David to go out for his own 10km run after his two hour shift and embrace the flooded streets of Chelmsford.
