Welcome to Charlotte, Duncan and Tina who joined us for the first time. Good to see lots of familiar faces back to do good whilst getting fit too.

Our task tonight was about as close as we could get but to make sure we still got some fitness work in we headed to the grounds of St Mary's Church for some laps and drills (hope you're not too sore in the morning!).

Soon after, we headed round the corner to 250 Fratton Road where the Salvation Army are setting up a therapy centre for people in recovery. When we arrived there was a very full room that needed clearing including 10+ boxes of books that needed to be transferred to a big cupboard on the landing. The team quickly sprung into action; some forming a human chain to transfer the books; others lifting and shifting broken bits of furniture and other random things (including a food processor) to be packed into the storeroom. The empty boxes were flattened and collated in the garden. Once the room was empty, Charlotte did excellent work with the vacuum cleaner.

Our hard work was rewarded with some drinks (thank you Lauren) and as we were so efficient, we even had time to run to the park for a 500m lap time trial (Ashley was flying tonight) and a bit of core work.

Our stretch session was completed with the run report title (thank you again Shakira) and the best use for the cones.

Strike a pose.... vogue!
