WA Mar 2021 12:52pm, 6 Mar 2021 8,449 posts	0 WA Daft question- what is jeffing? Is it run-walking or something else?

Kirsty Mar 2021 1:05pm, 6 Mar 2021 963 posts	0 Kirsty Yes, jeffing = run walking. Named after Jeff Galloway who invented the concept. Or something. Baked porridge is literally just oats and milk (with added fruit/spice/nuts whatever) so healthier than flapjacks for breakfast!

The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring

Lent has a special and specific meaning to Christians but has become an secular season of denial and hair shirting that serves no positve purpose. No chocolate, no booze, no -er - other stuff.

Why not treat the build up to Easter - as a chance to celebrate and embrace NEW THINGS - that's what spring is about after all.

The first few pages of the thread give more ideas.
