Nine runners went on an adventure around Farlington Marshes for a sunny training run. Today we focused on our breath and moving it deep into our tummies and away from shallow chest breaths. It was a nice opportunity to think about how we breath when we run naturally then we could experiment with what felt good. We practiced counting our breaths, 2 counts in and 2 counts out and our final push was counting our breath whilst sprinting. On the run back we went at our individual paces and practiced in our own way to find what felt good for each of us. Finally we stretched out and headed home.

Nine runners tackled the mass of litter in the first car pack at Farlington Marshes. A massive welcome to Laura who joined us today on her first community mission and GoodGym session, go cheer, comment and make her feel part of the gang! A big Happy Birthday to Dr Jo thanks for spending your special day with all of us making the city a cleaner place. Maxine also showed total dedication by joining us even though her jet lag was making her feel as if it was 10pm and her bedtime. You guys are the best. We collected 3 bags of general waste, including lots of fast food packaging and 3 bags of waste we could recycle, including cans and bottles.
