9 GG Brent fitties were fast and furious as they pushed down pavements and paraded their way through tonights leaflet task for Brent's good causes. YAY!!

Now all I can say to start this run report tonight is - What Debs wants Debs gets and when our bride to be requested a track session, how could I refuse!! So armed with our source of good-deeding info sharing leaflets for - The NHS, Granville community food kitchen and some home grown repping for us GG BRENT as well, we got to stepping and paper chased our way through the ends, all the way to Willesden Sports Centre. BOOM!

Oh and thank you mother nature for blessing us with a rain free evening. Really and truly, this will be the first track attack session in a while that hasn't been a wash out! phewwwwww!!!!

So after our community spree which included face to face, library drops and postal passion, we arrived at our home for the eve & let me tell you, these guys were raring to go. Seriously energised and ready for some fabulous fitness fun and games in the form of drills, skills and a lot a lot of HIIT training - THATS High intensity interval training to you and me ;) POW POW!

After some mobilising and skills work, in the form of walking lunges , crab walks and various hop, skip and jumps (No that wasn't into the sandpit although Tabitha would have loved that!!) it was set to work on running 200m sprints, timed and repeated to track pace!

Can I just say at this point, OMG what a set of times, for each and every one!! All achieved even in the midst of some worried faces and moments of self doubt, particularly ironic was the cries from Jo But I'm not a sprinter hummmm really?? As she smashed in under 40 seconds each time!!! Bolt eat your heart out please!

Everyone gave it their all and worked their socks off for the whole session. Huffing, puffing, panting, recovering then going again and again. Special shouts go to Pushpa aka 'mum' who shaved 15 seconds off her first time in round three, living up to her name as she "Pushpa'd" to the max!! Think she was holding out on us and is a cheeky lil speedster at heart!!

After the main event, we finished off the session and the last of the legs with step jumps x 10 for three rounds and with that all jelly legged and understandably exhausted, we jogged the cool down back to base.

Another great evening doing good in Brent, with a HIIT-Fit focus for our resident badass athletes, that really packed a punch!

See you next time fit fam!!

DO GOOD. FEEL GOOD. INSPIRE

22 runners ran 6 km to help Streatham Wells Primary School and the Friends of Kennington Park.

A huge congratulations to Michael for securing June's Shit Prize of the Month. He's been putting us all to shame on the distance board racking up an amazing 122km so far this month. And now has not one, but TWO Glastonbury 2017 programmes as reward for his exploits!

With some positively torrential rain battering it down throughout, we all made sure to bring our best primary coloured waterproof gear. With Jim in particular looking prepared for some biblical level flooding.

Team 1 headed up to Streatham Wells Primary School. Tom Hunter tells us all about it: After running up the hill with rainy training montage intensity, we were met by Richard who showed us an area of the garden that was in need of a bit of a spruce and tidy up. Careful to avoid binning all the children's lovely hand painted earth stones, we made short work of the mess and had the whole place looking good as new in no time.

Team 2 headed down to Kennington Park. Beth Hoskins gives us the lowdown: 12 of lambeth's finest Took the flat option this week and ran 2.5 K down to Kennington Park. We were helping the friends of Kennington Park give the place the once over before an inspection tomorrow. Most of us were on Team Litter and armed with litter pickers and bags we picked up all the sweet wrappers, cigarette butts and bottle tops we could find. Team Shears headed to the perimeter of the park to trim some overgrown beaches that were trying to escape out of the railings and came back with a whole shopping trolley full of clippings. Finally there was Team Secateurs who deadheaded the roses and made sure they hadn't taken too much of a battering in the heavy rain.

Then it was time to speed it home and daydream about that lovely warm cup of hot chocolate we would have when we reached shelter. A huge well done to everyone who still decided to come out to do some good in such conditions! As you can see from the photos, John G was traumatised....
