Same Shed....Different Day

Bournemouth Report written by Bournemouth runner

With a pizza date on offer after our group run this evening 14 of us got together to run to Hope Housing.

We were lucky to have Dan come and visit us from GoodGym Bath, hope we see you again next week!

We ran the straightest route there and Mark surprised us with what we were going to be doing....moving things out of a shed and then back again but waaaaaaay tidier.

In 25 minutes the team managed to get everything out...stacked on the side, we got the important things out and in a different room then re-organised everything back in an orderly fashion!

Because we were so efficient we were able to run insane intervals on the way back! Plus the promise of yummy Pizza made everyone run that little bit faster!!

Well done everyone! See you next week!

Crate Work Team

Bournemouth Report written by Bournemouth runner

It looked like it might hold off for us again, and allow us another dry group run.....but then with 30minutes to go it started to drizzle....30 minutes later and we still have 14 lovely people ready to come together, go for a run and help their community! Legends!!

We welcomed Caroline to her first group who did great and didn't break into a sweat considering she's used to going waaaaaaay longer distances than our 8km from tonight. Hope you still had a great time and see you soon! Give her a cheer please team!

Nicola invited along Kristina to her first group run and wasn't put off by the soggy conditions. Thank you for joining in and helping out, hope you had a good time! Hope to see you guys and Aoife for the rock climbing on Sunday. Anyone else interested please get in touch.

Awesome to also welcome back John, we'll have you anytime you're free! I know you're busy Wednesdays already!

After a very refreshing 4km run there, Alex let us in out of the rain and had some different tasks for us this week. Nicola, Caroline, Kristina and Aoife started woroking on food parcels that were going out the next day. A parcel that is supposed to help a family with food for three days, so they had to make sure the right ingredients were in each. They manged to complete 8 of them in 30 minutes! That's awesome work!

Sean, Chris and Daniela started moving fridges and cold storage units to another part of the warehouse to make space for all the sorted crates of beans, fish, soup etc.The rest of the gang did the usual task of going through donations. Checking sell by dates and sorting them in the corresponding boxes.

35 minutes after arriving and after a flurry of activity the team got together for a team photo....adjusted their layers...gathered at the entrance and set off backt o Flirt...through the rain. But by now it was something we had accepted, and we were grateful it wasn't a cold night!

Next week after our group run we are looking to go out to dinner at a vegan restaurant right next to our finish location in the Triangle. Please get in touch if you can join us so we know how may to book the table for!

Well done all of you for coming out despite the rain. Hope you feel great about yourself!

See you soon!

Bournemouth Report written by Bournemouth runner

After what felt like an eternity.....it was finally time for group runs again! And what a way to kick it off...by running to one of our favourite charities aaaaaaaaaaand having a record turnout!!!

27 RUNNERS!!!!!!!

what an amazing group of people!!! So many people wanting to come out and help in their community, do some exercise and meeting new people!

Because of the number we decided** to split the group into two and give runners a pace option. The slightly slower group went a more direct route and was led and backmarked by Daryl and Caprice and they did an amazing job!!!

The other group when a slightly longer route and had Neil and Mark holding things together like pros!

We all got their in one piece only to find that Alex hadn't arrives yet.....so we decided to run around the block and give him a bit more time.

We had a quick briefing outside to save time and when Alex arrived we burst through the doors and got straight to work as we only had 15-20 minutes left to sort through donations....

Needless to say with 27 amazing humans we got through much more in less time than we usually do!! Good thing new years resolutions brought so many of you along tonight!

After the blitz we didn't have a lot of time to get back so a few brave and powerful runners....Chris, Neil and Laura shot off to make sure they could get back and get our bags out....and they did!!! Legends!!!

Well done all of you for coming and helping out, doing something different and getting out of your comfort zone. Please come back and hang out with us again!

For those of you able to help Grace with her video request for how you use Maths in your jobs please email her with your video. Perhaps use wetransfer? Her email: grace.compton@btconnect.com

See you all next week, please log your runs on Strava and join us for good deeds to help us win our January Challenge!!!
