It is getting cooooolllldddd! But this team of superheroes don't seem to feel it, warmed by the good deeds they're racking up.
On a dark, properly cold evening, 15 runners showed up for one of our final outdoor tasks of the year: leafleting for Jubilee Sports Bank. Our goal was to make locals aware of this affordable, community sports centre, by distributing 300 (or was there more?) leaflets to houses in the area.
With a little competition and a bit of herding cats, after half an hour, we were 300 leaflets lighter.
Shout out to Tim who led his team to victory and to Sharon whose team came a close second, with the final scores 2 versus 1. Tim gets extra kuddos for coming up with this week's title pun.
It's becoming more of a challenge to find suitable spaces for our fitness session, so thanks to the team for their patience and adaptability. This week's bleep test didn't go quite to plan but did help the runners clock up 8km in total for tonight!
The run back was all downhill and we made short time of it. Arriving back to our cool-down spot, we met with John who was waiting for us. Kuddos to him for working late and missing the task, yet running into town for our Task Force meeting.
In the Task Force meeting we discussed our plans for the January Challenge, weighing up the possibility of stealing the golden trowel from GoodGym York - who's up for it? In the meantime, keep wracking up those good deeds by coming along next week.
Bonus shout out for Yan who ran to and from GoodGym last night, clocking up around 13km in total - great work Yan!
