At first it looked like Mission possible was not going to be possible for GG Bristol as there were no challenges, so it was Mission Impossible! However GG Bristol are a resourceful lot and have been used to the other end of the M4 forgetting them; so GG Bristol wrote their own challenges on the way to their mission, so Mission Possible was impossible no more Mission Possible was ON!

The challenge set was:

Run to Mrs A's

Help her

Run back

On the way take photos of places you can BASE jump off (ie, buildings, antenna towers, Spans and Earth.)

So Team Athos, Porthos and Aramission (or should that be Ara-missing?) set off on the 12 mile round trip to Mrs A's. Matt met Dave on route which was the same as the Malago route we ran yesterday on the Group run so we knew the route well, and we added some fartlek sections to keep it testing.

When we arrived Mrs A had written us a list of eight tasks, so the Mission was set! We started from the top with picking up leaves, removing weeds, and moving trees (in pots) and edging lawns.

Then we were asked to reshape the lawn to make it symmetrical, Dave did an amazing piece of landscape gardening to make left match right, then we covered the ground to stop weeds coming through and moved some gravel on top so that it looked like it had always been there.

Then all eight tasks were complete and we got a full five stars from Mrs A, so we headed off triumphant, and achieved the full points for Mission Possible, well done team. Now to await the other teams scores.
