Share the love

10 GoodGym runners ran 7km to support Positive Choices at their Radford Road Allotment. It was great this week to be joined (and led) by Becky who will be the leader of Warwick and Leamington Spa GoodGym when it launches later on in the year.

After the greeting speech and finding out about all the busy GoodGym runners over the past week, from Nuneaton 10km to Wolf Run and Silverstone 10km- Good work all.

On a warmer than expected night, we arrived to be greeted by Jenny from the group Positive Choices who showed us the allotment and explained our clearing task- with new tools too.

The brambles and weeds were not a match for our team though and paths were cleared and brambles taken down. There is still some work to be done and it would be great to spend more time supporting this allotment project in the future.

Becky then led us back to complete some hill reps where we worked on our form and using our arms to power up hills more efficiently.

Thanks Becky.

See you all next week, Liz x
