After an account review meeting held with customer, Keller’s, in late November it came to light they were planning to hold a staff jogging/running health initiative in January. Jeff Fielding, Head of Sales in London, thought that it sounded like a great idea and got the whole of Readymix London to jump on board.
Jeff continues the story: “The event runs for the whole of January, encouraging staff members to take up the challenge and compete via a league table using the “Map My Run” app. As a team, RMX London has joined the challenge and to help support the initiative we are supplying a trophy to the overall winner.
Currently we are doing well, despite the weather, and have clocked up circa. 86kms as a team. We also hold respectable positions individually in the league table.
Unfortunately, it seems Keller’s have a Marathon runner within their company (50kms in 2 runs!!!) so first place may be a step to far! But it’s all about being involved and it is great to see the challenge is being well supported by employees of both companies.
For the eagle eyed runners out there it is the “Map My Run” app, ‘Strava’, appeared in the ad line when I took the photo!”
