Helping Kenilworth Covid-19 Support group

Warwick & Leamington Spa Report written by Holly Downs

Myself and @mr.finn.maltipoo helped deliver letters from the Kenilworth COVID-19 support group to residents of Kenilworth so they have the latest information. The group offers support for anyone feeling lonely, anxious, depressed or isolated. They help with all sorts from medication and shopping collections/deliveries to a friendly voice on the end of the phone.

The Night (vision) before lockdown

Warwick & Leamington Spa Report written by Alexandra Iseghohi

A last minute pre-lockdown push to get out some important Covid support information to some vulnerable members of the Kenilworth community. Despite a last minute change of plans and a lot of street names, our two pairs of runners took the challenge in stride!

Speedsters David and James finished their homes in record time whilst Holly saved us with her awesome navigation skills. Despite a lot of squinting at tiny door numbers and a little frostbite, we completed the task with a lot of laughter.

Big thanks to everyone that came along and even took a few letters along with them to deliver on their way home. A special mention to Allan who couldn't make the mission but picked up some letters for a solo mission that evening.

Becky was super grateful and would like for us to stay involved with the group during lockdown!

Broom Broom, Shake the Room

Warwick & Leamington Spa Report written by Becky McWass

A bunch of Scrubbers took on a DIY SOS at an old golf pavillion in Kenilworth... Ok so there wasn't any DIY it was more How Clean is your House!

It wasn't the normal part of course to go so far from our usual home but we couldn't resist the challenge of clearing incy wincy spider and his friends

The task was to clean up the pavillion so that the Covid Support group can use this as a meeting area

It was a case of whose broom is it anyway as we set to work sweeping the walls and ceilings of Charlottes Web along with Fred, Dave and Johns Webs and all the other spiders that had taken over.

We found a hole in one room and scrubbed the floors, with great gusto, and carted the rubbish away (I really wish GoodGym could come sort my house out)

We also welcomed Alex, our new Area Activator, who did a sterling job on her first ever Community Mission.

Welcoming back Holly to the group was amazing as we've really missed her laughter as well as here photography skills. As we were on the home turf of Allan we got treated to his own version of Greese as he slide across the kitchen with j-cloths on his feet. .

Massive thanks to everyone that came along, Pauline was over the moon with how much we got done in one evening and can't wait to have us back.

Are you going "Neighbour to Neighbour" with Horse run leaflets or just "horseing around" tonight

Warwick & Leamington Spa Report written by Becky McWass

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

Beat the clock

Warwick & Leamington Spa Report written by Becky McWass

We welcomed two new runners this evening at The Fat Pug, who had laid on the fire for us, think they were attempting to sabatage our run.

Our warm up today consisted of lots of running drills to get our speedy legs warmed up, high knees, lunges and strides were part of the game followed by a short warm up run to the park for "Beat the clock". Using our pretend track at the park the aim of the game is to run for a set amount of time, then recovery before trying to beat the distance on the next round. Tremendous effort this evening from everyone and especially Gavin who stormed round keeping up for a lap with the "intense" guys.

Our task this evening was a final in the trilogy and our chance to get the medal. There were more de ribboning of medals, a few "hurdles" to remove and a lot of rubbish to shift.

Massive thanks from Kids Run Free and Raceways for all the hard effort was passed on from Martine.

Once the car was full it was short jog back to base.

Well done to our New runners this evening and a welcome return to Fiona.
