OVER 60 members of Fitness Focus gym in Clavering met up on Christmas Eve for a 10k fun run in aid of MEDICS

Many adorned Santa hats and reindeer antlers to run the familiar gym route around the village on a very wet and windy morning.

After their efforts runners were treated to home-cooked mince pies and bacon butties laid on by gym members and friends.

The total raised was �450.

Fitness Focus owner Danny Quelch said We had a great turn out, considering the bad weather. Many of our loyal Fitness Focus members braved the rain to run in aid of a great charity. Thanks to everyone who participated during such a busy time of year.”
