Fifty freaking magnificent GoodGymers came to the first Lambeth run of 2016 an incredible turn out.... that equates to 50 man hours that we can give back to the community each week. That's a lot of man hours.
It was great to see so many new faces and hear all about your goals for 2016.
So we ran a total of 4.5 miles (over 200 miles collectively), up from Brixton to Vauxhall, and everyone came back in one peice (phew). The food we took to Vauxhall Food Bank was much needed, indeed we provided the first donantions of the year. Fortunatley they will be getting donations again this year from the shoppers of Waitrose so a huge thanks to everyone who came to the doantion runs in 2015 and helped see them through a year without collections.
I'm also hoping that you all enjoyed your sprints on the way back.. I felt terrible. That cross country feel when you can taste iron. It's a sexy pain though right?
I'm really hoping that 2016 will be a massive year for GoodGym in Lambeth. If we can have a big turn out every Tuesday we can make a real difference to Lambeth and I will make sure I do everything in my power to help you train up for whatever fitness goals you have... and there will be cake and regular beers.
See you all next week. Hopefully
