we're not afraid of a little rain!

Last Tuesday at a couple of minutes before 6pm, a group of dedicated and fun-loving people met under the awnings of The Ship Inn, sheltering from the pelting rain. Some wore rain coats and hats, others wore normal Brisbane summer-time sports-wear. 50-ish minutes later said runners and walkers arrived back at The Ship Inn, a little wet, a little more dishevelled but all smiling and laughing about our run (and the crazy looks we received) in the rain!
A huge thanks and shout-out to the amazing group who came out to play despite the rain- we still managed to get our buzz on and we will be doing it all again tomorrow!
Tomorrow is also our end of month drinks so if you've been thinking of coming along, tomorrow will be a great chance to not only get your endorphins going but also to have a mingle and a chat as well. Remember your spare change- we'll be doing a final collection for aief  too- an organisation doing wonderful things for the education of our Indigenous kids.
Can't wait to see you all at the Goodwill Bridge this week- 6pm Tuesday for a run or walk and 6am Friday for a bike ride.
Hope this finds you all high and dry and ready to keep Buzz-ing despite the rain!  :)

end of january rides, walks and runs

we managed a rain-free tuesday session last wk!

Happy New Year of the dragon!!! Can you believe we are already approaching the end of January?! We'll celebrate another month of exercise and socialising with caffeine after our ride this Friday (get re-energised post-Australia Day!) and drinks next week after our run. The end of Jan will mark the end of fundraising for the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation so if you're keen to donate to a fantastic cause come along and join us on one of our last three sessions of the month.
We're also ready for suggestions for our next monthly charity/community organisation so if you've got some great ideas please send them through or mention them during one of our sessions!
Look forward to seeing you Tuesday's for a run or walk- 6pm at the Goodwill Bridge and Friday's at the same place for a ride at 6am.
Keep buzzing! :)
