Woking Junior Park Run

**NEWS

A big well done to James & Kirsty who completed the Brutal Run Spider Hill yesterday. James a veteran of Brutals completed the 10k course in a fantastic time while Kirsty who was doing her 1st Brutal did amazingly well... 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

This morning Wayne & Adam braved the winds of storm Bert to carry out volunteering duties at junior park run.

The park was not in to bad of a shape a course check was carried out apart from the odd branches that were cleared the 2k course looked good.

In total 56 runners braved the winds and all did so well. The fastest time was an amazing 07:37 and there were also 9PB's 😀

Great running by everyone 🏃🏻‍♂️

Leaflet Drop For Sam Beare Hospice

On this cold freezing night 9 GG members met to deliver leaflets for Sam Beare Hospice.

A big welcome to Viktoriia who we met at the volunteer for Woking event while she was there representing another charity. Viktoriia also happened to be a friend of Agathe 😀

Wayne, Adam, Katie, Alys, Agathe, Kirsty, Nadia, & Rebecca met at Woking leisure center all wrapped up 🥶

It was great seeing Rebecca who walked over to collect some leaflets to deliver, not quite ready to run as of yet after her surgery but not long now 😀.

After a warm up session by Adam which Quinn also got involved in 🐶 we headed out of the park towards Mount Hermon to hit the houses there we split up into two groups one on each side 🏃🏻‍♂️ including the Cul-du-Sacs.

It was so cold even with gloves it was very difficult & Wayne & Adam had shorts on the nutters 😮

Unfortunately we did not manage to do as many roads of we had planned due to the weather, but GG members between them will take leaflets and deliver them locally throughout the week and will also be handing them out on the weekend park runs until they have all gone 😀.

This morning I headed back to the Church of St John’s The Baptist ⛪️ to remove some of the bags of leaves that we had collected on Saturdays task to take them to the garden waste site for disposal 🍃🍂🍁☘️🍀

I managed to get 4 bags into the car and luckily the waste site was not that busy 🚙

The church grounds look so much better 😀

All Aboard Club

This morning we were back in Brookwood at the All Aboard Club helping set up a big train track for kids to enjoy. 😀

We welcomed Charlotte who is a Member of Goodgym Richmond. Charlotte has met some of our Woking GG members at the Martian Race a few years ago. Charlotte has recently moved to the area so hopefully we will be seeing more of her 😀 It was also great to see Claire back and what a great task to come back to. Wayne was pretty tired after completing a 10k run this morning but along with Richard (Mr All Aboard) and the group got stuck in. We all took up positions in different areas of the hall and started to lay the tracks. We were also joined by other volunteers doing their DofE which was fantastic.

In no time we had between us all made a very complex looking track with many twists and turns 🚂 which i am sure the kids will love.

Another great morning. Hope to see you all on Wednesday when we will be doing a leaflet drop for Sam Beare Hospice...😀
