We were back at it again this week with team GG Brum. Tonight’s task was supposed to be helping out at Birmingham Mission, but on arrival the door was locked and a notice outside said ‘we are closed due to unforeseen circumstances’! Anyway after knocking on the door John came down to tell us they have had their big wheelie bin nicked, therefore they had nowhere to discard the food waste! Hence this weeks pun thought up by Laura. Anyway we had a chat with John and it was off to an earlier start than usual for the hill intervals!

Tonight’s session was eight minutes of running up hard and then easy back down! Balal led the way chased down by George and Liam. Stephen put in some great leg work up the hill. Laura’s arm action was excellent and Will put in some top effort as he powered up the hill. Once done it was picture time before the run back.

Due to our task cancellation, time was on our side, so we took a slightly longer journey back along the canal, covering a big 9k in total. Top stuff!

Next week we will be out doing good again, it would be great if you could join us sign up here.
