Great to see everyone tonight, especially for venturing out on such a rainy day! We were very lucky and the rain managed to hold off for our run.

A massive well done to Debbie and Sarah, who not only came to their very first Solihull GoodGym but it was also their first time running in years! We hope to see you both again next week.

For tonight’s task, we were spreading the word about GoodGym Solihull by handing out leaflets to all the local organisations and anyone who ran past us along the way. Still being relatively new to the area, it was great to get our message out there to more people about how we get fit and do good!

After that, it was off to Brueton Park to do a fitness session.

This consisted of circuits, doing 30 seconds of hard effort followed by 30 seconds rest, repeating each exercise twice. We did high knees, squats, lunges and basketball shots. Everyone did an excellent job and really pushed each other through it!

After we had got your breaths back it was time for the short run back to base, to finish off with some cool down stretches.

Looking forward to seeing everyone next week when we are going to back to The Courtyard (a slightly longer run than usual). We will be starting to paint the flower beds ready for the summer months and do some more gardening!
