This week's Achilles run was another great one, with Laura joining as a new guide (welcome!) and some solid progress being made by all.

Ashfaq got in a 5k with Laura and Dimitri, thankfully saved from having to try out an ad-hoc clothing tether by a spare that was knocking around.

Laura then jumped onto Mark's team to listen as Michelle, Lucy and Steve took it in turns guiding - great to have you join us, Laura!

Andrew ran with Edyta for a steady several laps around the track, as a pair they've got in a few runs together so were completely in sync.

Naqi and Harvey took full advantage of the track to get in an intervals session & ended up doing their fast intervals quicker than they'd even expected - nice one guys!

We even got in a bit of mental exercise during cool-down as we added up split times in our heads, so a very well-rounded session - back again next Thursday, as ever, if you'd like to join. 😊

A few Goodgym members came together to do some early morning yoga to start the day in the right way.

Making the practice of yoga a habit each morning allows the body to get into the habit of switching off the sympathetic ‘fight or flight’ stress response, and instead able to finally tap into the healing benefits of the parasympathetic nervous system – increasing the health of both body and mind immensely.
