Well all I can say is I feel sorry for the children at Ms. Loxton's school as she turns out to be the Professor Snape of the English education system. High Intensity Interval Training is defined by Wikepedia as alternating short periods of intense anaerobic exercise with less intense recovery periods, until too exhausted to continue. This was pretty much how I felt after 55 fiendishly difficult questions on topics including isoloceles triangles and plagues of the ancient world!

Writing this morning with my head wrapped in a wet towel, I can hardly recall the questions - perhaps I shouldn't have had that low alcohol beer!.

What I can remember is that it was yet another great evening with the lovely GoodGymers from Waltham Forest. Hats off the Ms. Loxton for putting together such a challenging and facinating quiz. Congratulations to Alex for coming up trumps and volunteering to do the next quiz, which will be in place of our monthly social on Wednesday 6th May, sign up here

We will also be Zooming every Wednesday for drinks and chats so sign up to next week's session here

And of course, there is still time to sign-up to this week's Training Challenge which you have until Saturday to complete. Sign-up here
