Not so paint less

Meanwhile in Westminster 21 brave brave, oh so brave souls headed deeeeeeeeeep into the darkest depths of North West London aka Queens Park in search of The Avenues Youth Centre where a magical room full of paint and brushes awaited. Why? We were going to paint a room a beautiful shade of white ;-).

Now with a large contingent joining us from Imperial college an extra special elongated briefing was needed about the wonderfulness of goodgym, its history and of course the risks of running on the road.

With that in mind we set off as one but slowly broke up into 3 pace groups, one managed by myself, one by the ever helpful, ever wonderful Lucy and finally one by the Imperial college team.

Now for those of you that are blissfully unaware The Avenues Youth Centre is somewhat of a TREK from where we are BUT we do not let this deter us. With Oysters in our hands just in case, we make it work. 5.5k there and of course 5.5k back BUT we break that up so people can either jump on a bus back or run half way back and jump on a train.

Now we have got the logistics out of the way we may now discuss the joy that painting brought to our hearts.

On arrival we were greeted by the ever friendly Jo who would show us to the tools that were needed for the job. With a quick scramble to find something sharp to open the paint with we were on our way. 20 mins to get the paint out, open it up, distribute it, paint, tidy up and soak the brushes lol.

Did it happen? of course it did with a little help from the paint fairies we got a majority of it done BUT as with all tasks there will always be more for us to do so a small contingent will return on saturday to finish one of the walls and finish getting rid of some paint. YOU could be part of that contingent. KEEN? of course you are.

Now we waved goodbye to 3 quarters of the team and a few of the faster ones stayed behind to try and get allllllllll the paint out of those hard to reach spots then somehow managed to chase down the main pack of runners arriving seeeeeemlessly with in minutes of eachother, another team arrived by bus, another arrived by train.

Now as far as i am concerned THIS IS TEAMWORK.

Thank you all for coming and of course for working both on the road and in the Avenues.
