Tonight saw 10 runners attend our mixed bag fun run to post leaflets for Chelwood Foodbank, a wonderful charity that helps collect and distribute food in 3 various locations in Stockport. We posted these leaflets a few weeks back but with not such success as we were targeting larger companies that didn't really want us around, so we had a change of tactic and headed to some smaller businesses in a more popular area.

We started at the usual location and time, Stockport Lifeleisure, 6.30pm. This week we did a longer than usual warm up as we waited for one of runners, we never leave anyone behind, we're good like that.

Since we have done a few leaflet drops over the few months and the fact the school games went so well at last weeks task I thought it would be a good idea to make into a game, so as well as running and leaflet posting there were lots of other challenges involved, including squats, lunges, plank holds, tricep dips to name a few, all in the name of fun and fitness. It was a entertaining way to spend the evening, and we got some very funny looks since all of this was done on one of Stockports busiest roads! I'm not sure what got the most attention to be honest, the group squat hold (we all looked like we were having a wee togther) or the yoga tree pose??? (we just looked odd) either way you did well staying grounded in your tree poses with storm Gareth about, nothing can blow us off our feet.

Well done guys, as ever you worked really hard, and there was some great team work. It was lovely to meet Zoe for the first time, hope you enjoyed the evening, thanks for lending Pete your coat, you would think all that hair would keep him warm.......I did offer to share my hot vimto, and my headband. Well done Anne on your 30th good deed, and again Im sorry for not shouting your number, also well done and enjoy the mission this wk end with fellow runner Martin, cant wait to hear all about it.
