Report written by Ipswich runner
Another great turnout for Goodgym Ipswich on lovely warm evening.
We really had two tasks tonight........ one was to paint the exterior hoardings of Gusford School swimming pool and the other was the run to get to the school and back - just under 3 miles each way with some challenging hills thrown in.
Well, the group splashed it. .... making the outward run look easy !
The last 200m was a deep end descent down a steep hill to the school, where we met Rebecca and her team, who showed us through to the pool area.
It looked like a very big task but everyone dived in enthusiastically grabbing sand paper, brushes and rollers.
Everything was going swimmingly and the tatty old boards were quickly turning white.
Water difference a coat of paint makes
The team managed to get virtually all of the exterior painted which will be the base for our task next week when we return to paint a second coat in blue. It's amazing how much can be achieved when everyone one pools together!
Then it was time to wave goodbye and the return leg of the run ....... starting with the climb up deep end hill. Liz tried to rally our spirits with a marine style sing song as we headed to the summit....... the chant quickly faded as we ran out of breath as incline increased! But everyone one dug in and floated to the top
Afintastic evening with a great task and tough but enjoyable run out and back.
