10 awesome runners braved the elements to deliver flyers for Charlton House!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE! Hope you enjoyed your evening on the lovely damp streets of Greenwich!

Huge well done for turning up, it's those grim miles that will make you a stronger and more resilient runner so give yourselves a pat on the back! Winter miles for summer smiles!

We had a nice tight knit little group but of course still went round the circle, this time talking about last night's pancakes and what we had on them. Sam's seemed especially extravagant... and then it turned out he didn't even HAVE them! Just 364 days to go Sam until you can make your dream a reality!!!

We skipped the usual warm up and opted for a slow and steady jog to get us on our way as quick as possible! We ran together and made our way up the hill towards Charlton, finishing at the beautiful Charlton House where we were able to thaw our fingers and toes for a few minutes and more importantly pick up the leaflets!

Once everyone had a pile of leaflets in hand, we set off trying to deliver them as quick as we could so they didn't get soggy! We lost Channie quite early on, think she had enough and just went home! Don't blame ya! After about 10-15 minutes, all the leaflets had disappeared (or disintegrated) and we were on the home straight back to the uni!

We arrived a little after 8 o'clock... nice and early! We did a mini fitness session comprising of some drop squats to work those glutes and some tricep dips because it's important that the upper body gets some love too! 4 minutes later and we were done! We walked back round to the classroom and treated ourselves to an indoor stretch! LUSH!

Thanks again for all your dedication this evening folks! Well done getting out there on such a miserable evening! Have a lovely rest of the week and I shall see you next Wednesday!
