On a glorious sun shining evening we welcomed no less than FOUR new @GGSHEFF runners. Big cheers for;

  1. Beth Sreeves
  2. Cat Oldham
  3. Kiri Langmead
  4. Athena

Hope you all enjoyed it and will be along in future weeks!

After welcoming our new runners and doing are standard count up, brief and group photo we headed up into the centre of town to the rear of the Winter gardens with some circular squats and stair sets thrown in to keep the group together over the traffic lights.

At the winter gardens we met Gareth, Doug and Tim from the REGATHER team who along with our GG Task Force Team captains Kim, Sam and Steve would help us co-ordinate and assemble three big marquees ready for Sheffield Food Festival where REGATHER will be doing all sorts of non for profit pay as you feel foody activities to engage the local public in sustainable and local food!

By the end of the eve the three marquees were all beautifully erect with poles all in the correct places, bungees lashed down tight and water buts ratcheted to ensure nothing gets blown away.

Well that was pretty intense.... - Steve Gilmer

With time pretty tight we only had time for a quick group abs session on the nearby grass consisting of;

  • Knee touches
  • Flutter Kicks
  • Over and unders
  • V-Up's

We head home and stretched off on the grass before hearing the latest news which included Sam reaching 200 good deeds and Steve reaching a huge 250! Massive congrats to you both!

Until next time, happy running :)
