On a dark, dark night, somewhere in the North West of England, 9 brave runners covered 8km to help British Heart Foundation's electrical and furniture store.

Our noble nine put in a brilliant run last night, with some of the fastest clocked kilometers in GG Liverpool's history. We had a new task to visit, some 4km away from our Hope Street Hotel base. The whole team dug deep and the navigation was tip top (if I do say so myself!) so we make it there just after 7pm.

Greeted by store manager John and a nice warm indoor task, we were led through the British Heart Foundation furniture showroom and upstairs to a large and very full stockroom. Our task was to reorganise the room, moving mattresses then matching table and chairs together. While we are dreamy at shifting stuff quickly, the game of matching chairs to tables proved more time consuming. So we did our best to be as useful as possible in the short time we were there with the offer to return to finish the job ASAP.

Shout outs this week go to Karen for being a cheerful and reliable back-maker, and to Amy for braving the cold to return after numerous weeks away. Wear more layers Amy, we miss you! And of course to George for the title pun (again!).

With mattresses reorganised at the back of the room and having made a start on shifting the single tables and single chairs, we sadly had to leave. The run home, which was mostly downhill and had only a few traffic lights, was completed at GG Lpool record-breaking pace and I was super proud of the whole team.

Next week I'm still confirming things, due to a last minute change of plan. But rest-assured, you should sign-up to make the most of your Monday evening. Do good, get fit: SIGN-UP!

Until then, happy running, Char <3
