OK, let's try this again. On last week's trip to Sayers Croft there were no keys available to let us in, so we were a little worried this evening as we set off on the 10k round trip to the same venue.

However, remaining positive, we kept a steady pace for the journey up, with Barnet regular Damian tail running.

On arrival and with a bit of confusion at reception it seemed for a moment like we might be turning back round again. But, we stuck to our guns and with a bit of persistence managed to get a set of keys and gain access to the environmental area.

The kids that use the area have been making fires in a fire bowl to toast marshmallows. Yum. They sit there and eat them and tell stories. Their only problem is that it takes ages to find sticks for the fire, so this is where GoodGym step in.

Because of the long journey and key bartering we only had ten minutes to carry out the stick hunt, but it's surprising what an enthusiastic bunch can do in ten minutes and we ended up with a respectable bundle.

For the journey home we included a few harder runs thinking a little about technique (standing tall, quiet footfalls) and also got sprinty with a game of secret surges.

Great job everybody. Cory's back next week, but I am sure I will see you soon,

Meanwhile at Westminster we continue to dance, skip, bound and of course run around regardless of how much the clouds threaten.

Sadly our task didn't go ahead due to weather but never the less we took to the streets and put in some work whilst scouting for potential tasks.

Now no Goodgym session is complete without Drills upon drills, intervals, mobility, balance and the all important smiling.

We weaved our way through some backstreets popping out by Regent's Park, ran through the pretty gardens, admired the flowers then headed back just a little bit quicker.

Thanks to everyone who rocked up and embraced our little circuit.

See you next week.
