The perfect 10 runners ran 5km, completing a task supporting Central Youth Club - in record time!

Liverpool's youth clubs are over-stretched and under-resourced, so here at GoodGym Liverpool we do what we can to help them out whenever we can. Central Youth Club is just north of the city in Kensington and is a newbie friendly distance to run. While residents of London's Kensington have a life expectancy of 83 years old, in Liverpool's Kenny resident's can hope to make it to the average expectancy of just 70 years old. Yep, that's a staggering 13 years difference!

We've helped out at Central Youth Club an number of times, working to tidy up their facilities. The task this time was a bit different - they needed GoodGym to deliver the centre's newsletter to local homes. Always keen to help fight stereotypes about young people, we were glad to take the task.

With 200 leaflets to deliver, the team made super fast work of it, with a little bit of healthy competition adding to the speed.

Everyone was brilliant tonight but special kudos to Rowan who led their team to victory. And of course a HUGE shout out and massive well done to Mat who came clad in his new black GG tee after clocking up a mighty 50 good deeds.

Once all the newsletters had been delivered we ran back to the youth centre and made use of their floodlit Astroturf pitch. After a not-the-most-fun sort of task, I treated the team to a silly game rather than a hard workout, which we called "The best runners...". I have a feeling we'll be playing it again soon.

Well done you top ten!

Next week is week one of two when we'll be clearing flower beds at Jubliee Sports Bank. Bring your headtorches and your gloves and get signed-up here.

Until then, happy running <3
