10 Goodgym runners painted for the ideas hub

Another cold January evening and we finally had an indoor task! As we were painting at the ideas hub where we meet, we decided to adjust the running order accordingly. After our briefing we got straight in to the task taking the equipment upstairs and beginning painting straight away.

Or task was to paint some MDF panels so they could be used for walls or linings. As there were more than enough for one each we selected a board and got the painting underway. Discussion included which rollers to use (fluffy or smooth), if going to another Goodgym session outside Chelmsford was Brilliant or a punishable offence? (you know who you are. ;) ) And of course when we should have our social.

Once we had painted everything we could find white, we cleaned up and set off to do a run session. An easy warm up lap of the park and some fun running drills to make sure we were ready to go, then we paired up for some "Paarlauf" running ("Pair running" in German) 5 laps in our pairs were quickly dispatched and after a break 4 more in the opposite direction were Lapped up by all.

A stretch and debrief and we were done for the evening. Discussion on the social is on the GG Chelmsford facebook page, so get involved! Next week we will be back at the hub to do a second coat and hopefully get most of the job done. See you there!

Ken, since you have done runs in other goodgym areas yourself as well, the verdict can only be 'brilliant'? or at least an adventure!
