Today we had a mammoth volunteering turnout of 11 GoodGymers at Edgbaston Reservoir, with a joint GoodGym and City of Birmingham Striders (COBS) takeover following a few collaboration runs over the last few months.

We had Balal on timekeeping duties, Tom and Eve handing out finish tokens, Raull completing his normal tailwalking role and Rob, Richard, Ryan, Danny and Nadia doing a brilliant job of marshalling under tricky conditions!

Great work all, today's event wouldn't have gone ahead without you!

Tonight we met up with the lovely City of Birmingham Striders. You'll see from the picture that it was even light when we set off tonight!

We ran just over 7k in total on the last of the winter routes, with the clocks changing next week.

Myself, Danny and Tom ran together and even put in a few fast strides in the last couple of k's.

Once back we were put through a good stretching routine, then it was off to the pub for most of the group, for some well earned refreshment :)

Tonight, as our task was cancelled we joined our friends from City of Birmingham Striders, or COBS for short!

We went on a good 7.5k-8k run with the group, taking in a lot of the city centre.

Once we returned Lisa took us through a stretching session before we all got rehydrated in the pub were Balal took the obligatory group photo :)
