The Darling Muds of May
13 GoodGymers made their way 10.7km on a training session in Liverpool.
- Thursday, 13th of May 2021
- Led by Char Binns
Another fun training session for 14 GoodGymers, ready to run as a group again.
Despite the rain, 14 runners showed up for our training session last night. Following on from last month's Trail Running 101, this was the next step - an 80 minute run around Liverpool's urban trails. The rain only added to the atmosphere in the woods and parks we traversed and increased the chance of getting VERY muddy. All runners were successfully mud covered by the end of the run.
In a flat city, with water on one side, trail running isn't something you'd associate with Liverpool. But lockdown forced me to find new routes and I was eager to share my discoveries with the group, taking them down paths that many of them had never explored before.
A huge GoodGym welcome to all the newbies who joined the muddy run last night.
It was a joy to welcome so many eager new runners to the team, thanks for getting involved Anna, Ankita, Chris, Marianne and Naomi. You all did fantastically well and were great fun to boot! Do join us again soon :)
As ever, it was also lovely to see lots of familiar faces.
If you have ideas for training sessions, suggested location or running ambitions, do give me a shout and I'll try to plan something exciting soon. In the meantime, find out what else is coming up at GoodGym Liverpool here.
Happy running <3
