We love the number 11 so much we Did it again tonight, and a big welcome back to Holly this evening, if you’ve had a break for a few weeks don’t worry, We can adapt the session to suit everyone and would love to see you again.
A fun warm up of hopping, jumping, touching the ground and star jumps depended on age, gender, job, names was had and everyone was ready to go.
Three groups went running door to door, expertly done now with the past two weeks training, we even covered areas not in the map. “Strava stalking” was needed to determine where we went. A search party had to be employed at one point as we were down two runner. Ragu and David found the never ending road. And like the yellow brick road they found their “heart”.
Tonights task was a tandem of charities, spreading the word about the horsey run for Raceways who fund free running events for children and Chase Meadow community centre.
A run back in two parts, the first group heading back early to combat the hill and the search party and awol gang followed in hot pursuit.
Once at the top of the hill, a pace race began; in teams of three with a faster runner in each the aim of the game was to pace your team round to finish together. Adjudicator Holly with her finish line photo showed one winning team. Although the rest were very close behind.
Great team effort as always with the GoodGym gang.
A little stretch and a congratulations to David and Michelle for being Mission ready
See you next week

And can you feel the love tonight? It is where we are It's enough for this wide-eyed GoodGymer That we've got this far...
A challenge was set last week to cover one estate in leaflets and we accomplished it, so with the love of February on our side the GoodGym crowd grew this evening to 11, and David was sharing the love by bringing his bubbly and lovely wife Michelle along for her first run...
We took on challenge 2, to find the mythical Unicorn and surround her in the love of Chase Meadows Community Centre. Ok, so it was more a pub we found in the middle of the area we needed to leaflet run by Gorgeous George.
Last weeks challenge was James trying to get through all the latched gates, this week saw our smaller team being trapped by a never ending fence and being unable to start leafleting till they found the hidden entrance.
A great evening, which uploaded onto Strava, by Taskforce member Gavin, created a beautiful fly by video (he's feeling a little lonely, so don't forget to sign up as a taskforce member once you've completed 10 runs. )
We've now completed 2/3rds of our Chase Meadows challenge, saving the charity at least 3 days worth of work, and now we've perfected our run, leaflet drop, run tactics we sure to complete the area next week. This really is making a massive difference to a local charity.
On our return route we had a lovely little relay race, using a 500m track - our own version through the streets of Warwick, the group were split into two with equal(ish) speeds.... The teams then had to debate tactics for which order to set the runners off in. The aim was to get back first.... Amazingly it appeared both groups used similar tactics, and a cat and mouse chase began. A very tight finish and a few lungs were left somewhere between Cafe Nero and Coffee No 1.
Back at base we did a lovely little stretch and a reminder to sign up for the GoodGym Shin dig....
Massive thanks for Nicola for saving the day when the phone died and so got some great action shots for the run report.
See you next week!
