Two groups of GoodGymmers hit the streets to deliver community newsletters for St James' Forum, as well as helping me with my Leadership in Running Fitness qualification tonight!

MEGA shoutout to Lisa and Craig who recently completed their 50th GoodGym deed. To celebrate they get a rather fetching/stealthy black shirt, as well as some Black Magic chocolates to slow them down a bit / get them ready for Christmas provided by Klara.

To get started we met up on Piazza Terracina at Exeter Quayside. We enjoyed some lovely moves including crab walks and skips to feature on the video which some poor trainer will enjoy watching!

Following our warm up we had a nice short run through town, where we met Harry (once Klara had called the right Harry...). He gaves us lots of community newsletters to deliver locally.

After this we headed over to St Leonards for some tasty hill sprints. Spicer Road is a lot less steep than I remembered which is probably a good thing post-lockdown...

Santa Klara came through with another festive treat for us all at the end of the evening, as we watched her imbibe a full flask of mulled wine! It's a shame regulations meant we couldn't share any.

Happy Christmas everyone!
