We found that special thing, we're flyering without wings!

Greenwich Report written by Sarah Place

13 wonderful runners ran 3km to spread the word about the Bexley Colour Run!

We just about dodged the rain last night. Phew! Otherwise that would have made for some rather sad and soggy flyers.

A smaller group than usual and a larger wad of leaflets than usual... not the most ideal combo but I remained hopeful!

We split off into two groups. Alex and Steve taking their group to the East while my lot stayed around Greenwich station and town centre.

We had 45 mins to get rid of as many as we could before reconvening for a fitness session!

My group was onto a winner quite early on with the rows of letterboxes outside some blocks of flats. Such a quick win! Weird event of the night award goes to Jennie who was posting a flyer and was greeted by an adult sized hand waiting to grab it off her as she pushed open the letterbox! I think she shot out of that garden in a flash!

Our time deadline was approaching so we headed back to the uni with sadly a few flyers in hand. Group 2 showed us up as they arrived back on time AND managed to distribute all their leaflets. NICE!

We finished off the session with some more running and adding in a few fast bursts to get the legs ticking over nicely. Then went back and had a stretch!

Community mission at the Colour Run

As I mentioned, you can also help out at the Colour Run on the day itself. They are looking for people to help with setting up and marshalling etc. There will be a few people from GoodGym Bexley actually running in the event so it should be a fun day! If you're interested, all the info is here

Great work last night everyone! Hopefully they will have a great turnout on the day thanks to you all! See you next week for some wall washing!

I'll take you to the sandy shop

Greenwich Report written by Sarah Place

21 wonderful runners ran 4km to sand down and paint railings at Grinling Gibbons Primary School!

A lush evening in Greenwich once again, hopefully these sunny nights are here to stay! We welcomed two new runners to the gang, Tom and Jennie.. hope you both had a nice first run with us!

Due to my dilly-dallying we didn't have much time for a warm up so a gentle jog around the quad sufficed and then we set off!

The destination was Grinling Gibbons Primary School in Deptford where our very own Natalie is a teacher. Our task was to sand down and paint the fence... which didn't sounds like a big job, but Natalie did mention it was a rather large fence. However ever the optimist I was sure we could get it done all in one session... but no, Natalie does not lie, that fence was never ending.

Once we saw what we were up against, we got cracking immediately. Everyone grabbed some sandpaper and began frantically sanding, some interesting tekkers, I particularly enjoyed Ollie's doubled handed method. Clearly he had done this before.

Then it was time to crack open the paint, which was an ordeal in itself! The lid eventually loosened and we distributed the paint making sure to get as much of it on the pavement as possible as well as each others clothing..!

We focussed the attention on the first few railings for the paint job while the rest of the group carried on sanding their way down the fence, coughing and spluttering as they inhaled the dusty paint fumes!

Time was a-ticking and sadly it was becoming clear that we weren't quite going to finish the job but good news is that we have now prepped it well for next week when we will be returning to hopefully get it all done!

Unfortunately not even time for a fitness session so we tidied up, took a quick photo and headed back to the uni for a stretch!

Community mission at the Colour Run!

If anyone wanted to help at the Bexley Colour Run in a few weeks that I mentioned that would be super awesome! Looks like a bunch of fun! Perfect if you fancy a longer run, Danson Park is lovely!

Great work everyone! I hope you all managed to get the paint off clothes and skin and other body parts! Good luck to those running the Vitality 10k on Monday! See you next week!
