The Arctic Monkeys!
12 GoodGymers made their way 9.0km to help the Free@last in Birmingham.
- Tuesday, 27th of February 2018
- Led by Jonny Carter
12 people ran 9k to get shown around and brainstorm some task ideas at Free@last
It was great to have a dozen runners at tonight’s run, on the coldest GG Brum night yet! After a flurry in the afternoon the white stuff kindly stayed away throughout the run. Once the intros were done we were out into the cold and got on our way rather quickly! Nobody wanted to be standing around tonight! We ran the 4.5k to Free@Last and were happy to get into the warmth on arrival. James welcomed us and showed us around the whole facility. The climbing wall was especially impressive. Richard and Luke especially enjoyed climbing across it! We were shown DJ booths and even recording studios, it really is an impressive facility. Once our tour was done we had a brainstorm on what we could do to help the facility next month, it was decided we would take a fitness session for the facilities’ attendees.
The run back
Once done, we had time for a quick photo, David seemed to enjoy lying in the snow I'm sure he would have been up for building a snowman if there had been a little more of the white stuff knocking about! We ran in a few groups all running slightly different speeds. Everyone worked well supporting each other to get the job done in quick time.
Next week we will be out doing good again, it would be great if you could join us sign up here.
