7 runners ran 8km to help promote a Diverse Abilities charity event
Wow ...a hot one tonight so well done to all who ran!
A big welcome to newcomer Marina who has ventured out from the gym to dash around Bournemouth! Dan also made a welcome return and absolutely smashed it! Daryl couldn't make tonight so Neil slipped into the roll of back-marker....great job!
After a brief warm-up and some pandiculation, we climbed our way towards Meryick park. A fab trail run section followed with some fast feet dodging roots and stones!
We then split into 2 teams to deliver flyers for local charity Diverse Abilities , who do great work with children and adults with profound disabilities. We zipped seamlessly up and down streets and once in a rhythm , all 200 +leaflets were safely delivered!
Downhill all the way back, after a brief limbo under a barrier, we flowed through Bournemouth gardens in the cooling evening shade , with a great sense of satisfaction of a job well done!
A brief cool down followed and chat about next weeks visit to Hope housing....see you all there!
Have a great week :)
