November Rain

With the rain falling all day yesterday I must admit at one point I thought I would have been the only one turning up for the task. To my delight when I got to Solutions Stanka had already arrived, then the others all came one by one.

Blame it on the rain

There were 8 of us signed up to last nights task, while awaiting the arrival of the group I received a message from one of the sign ups, informing me he had the symptoms of the start of a cold so he wouldn't be coming along given the weather conditions.

7 brave runners ran to Tunstall nursery to help tidy up their out door area. The playground was covered in leaves, armed with mini brooms we set about sweeping up the leaves into piles with the rain the rain beating down on our backs. Sweeping up the wet leaves was no easy feat but we managed to clear the playground of majority of the leaves making a huge difference to how it was when we first arrived.

Task completed we headed back to Solutions where we did some speed drills on the way back, little did they know that was my way of getting out of the rain as soon as possible.

Next week is giving Tuesday and we will be heading back to Foundation4Life to help them sound proof their studio sign up here

As mentioned on the run 1 December GoodGym London Christmas Party will you be representing Croydon? Looking for inspiration for your costume?
