Tonight 10 lovely runners turned up to Solutions Gym only to find out that our task to the Scout Hut had been cancelled at short notice. We had two options - pub or a long fitness session so of course we chose running, squatting, jumping, balancing and stretching in the rainy park - we are GoodGym Croydon after all.

Ably led to Park Hill Rec by Martin who made sure we got there in one piece and back marked by Nicky we arrived at the park for a warm-up lap or two - it's a hilly place so hear rates were raised and the rain was welcomed as it cooled us down. We headed to the shelter for out first session of the evening and the runners competed their first circuit of 7 exercises which certainly helped them feel the burn. Hills were next with arms pumping, knees lifted and some great technique by all. Back to another circuit just to make sure they were well exercised and then we finished off with an old favourite "Heads or Tails". Before we headed back we spent some time practising some stretches to improve our technique and make sure we got the maximum benefit from them.

Then off we ran back to Solutions for a final cool-down stretch, chat about the next couple of runs and also our social at Mr Fox on Tuesday 25th of June which is being organised by Sarah.
