We welcomed Antonio to GG Brum for the first time tonight, it’s great to have him on board.

On a very ‘sweaty Betty’ night (humidity was very high) we had a nice outdoor task to attend. We ran to Stanhope garden for plenty of weeding, hence this weeks pun. After a few cricket related suggestions, I plumped for Will’s effort. Of course we needed to honour our World Cup heroes! I still can't believe it!

Once at Stanhope, it was lots of weeding and pulling up grass, to give the garden a nice tidy. One could say when we had finished it nearly looked as good as a cricket pitch!

Once the task was done the group did some short, sharp interval work. The session was six times 30 second ‘efforts’ with 30 seconds rest in between each one. Antonio put in a great Session on his first GG outing, John and Balal took on the pace, pulling everyone along. Top work everyone on such a humid night, you all worked your hardest.

Once done we took the easy run back to base. I think everyone was ready for a shower, of course after some re-hydration!

Next week we will be out doing good again, it would be great if you could join us sign up here.
