Band and Deliver
12 GoodGymers made their way on a training session in Tower Hamlets.
- Monday, 26th of April 2021
- Led by Laura Williams
There was chat, there was running, there was a pre-training task... Yep, it was Monday night at Meath Gardens.
All the regulars!
What a lovely turnout. A full list of sign-ups arrived at the fallen tree in huge Meath Gardens, an oasis nestled away behind bustling Roman Road.
We welcomed back Task Force member Kat, who'd flung herself right back in at the deep end, co-leading tonight's task at Hollybush with Becky. A supersquad no less.
And so we gathered in our favourite semi-circle with mats, resistance bands, music and a blue, blue sky.
What we did...
We ran to the basketball court a couple of times ("Maybe 3/10 intensity on the way there, and, say 7/10 on the way back?"); enjoyed some static stretches, dynamic stretches, and a core set-up, before running through top-to-toe moves with our looped resistance bands.
We finished with the greyhound-and-hare speed game, perfected by Simon who did the best hare impression, even after a sprint finish.
Shout-outs of shout-outs
Thanks to Becky and Kat for top task-leading, and to Becky for leading the run from Hollybush; to Jess and Simon for being our speedy, fun, courageous hares, and to the whole crew in general for committing, showing up, welcoming one another, and just being living, breathing Team Spirit.
See you in a fortnight!
