I think I better leaf right now, before they fall any deeper.

17 WINTER WARRIORS were absolutely not winter worriers and braved the cold for some doing good and getting fit.
After spending a little too long sharing our best fancy dress costumes we've ever worn (Titanic feat. iceberg was one of many highlights), we welcomed new runner Sadie ๐, we had a quick warm up and hit the road.
We were met at Brixton Road Youth Centre by Sharon who provided MANY bags (last time we visited we exhausted her supply) for us to start clearing leaves around the building. We grabbed some rakes and brushes and got to work.
Leaf & Let Die
Andy (king of effiency - see gif) and Sean (master leaf kicker - see pic) had an incredible system going, creating long lines of leaves and then shoving them into the bags.
Do you want to leaf forever?
I thought the cold might have been getting too much for everyone but no! This hardy bunch just kept going and going. I forgot to count the bags again but it was A LOT of bags of leaves. These got placed outside the gate ready for the council to collect tomorrow.
DON'T STOP DE-LEAFING
Eventually we did have to leave(leaf). We ran back as a big group and finished off with a quick game of Rock, Paper, Scissors feat. bonus abs/thigh workout.
3, 2, 1, BAM. Nice one guys ๐
