Storm Brendan may have been making his way across the UK but undeterred, 16 GoodGym runners welcomed Matt and set off to run 8km to support Feeding Coventry and the Coventry Social Supermarket.
On our way, through howling winds, we completed some hill reps, powering up the hills and enjoying our recovery back down again. After regrouping, we set off to the Social Supermarket where we were met by Ellie.
Our tasks involved: tidying up old offices, painting bathrooms and moving items of furniture. Teams were formed and tasks were completed. The office team found swag bags, typewriters and football shields, the bathroom teams started coating the randomly coloured walls and the furniture team moved cupboards, a piano and a bar!
Once we had tidied away the paint and posed for photos, we headed back through more rain to Drapers.
Well done all, have a great week and maybe see you Saturday, Liz x

This was good fun, I never realised how much space was in that building

There is loads more space and another hall behind the space where the office is. It is a labyrinth.
