Firstly, everyone give a warm welcome to Anish for his first Goodgym Solihull run, especially impressive on such a wet night!

For tonight’s task we were meant to be running to The Courtyard to help out in the garden but due to the wet weather over the last two days, unfortunately they had to cancel! This left us with no task planned apart from litter picking....in the rain!

After a quick chat we decided to go for a longer run and a short four minute hill session in Brueton Park. Everyone definitely pulled each other up the hills tonight, with Chris leading the way, followed by Fiona chasing him down. Rachel and Kate pushing each other hard, shortly followed by Lin and Anish.

Hill sessions are are an excellent way for runners to build strength, improve their speed, and build their mental strength and confidence in hill running.

A massive well done to everyone tonight especially with the monsoon weather we’ve had tonight and surviving their squelching trainers!

Next week normal procedure returns, and we’ll be going to the Scouts for the first time to help them.

See you next week, Rob
