Tonight we visited the Sainsbury's by Warren Street Station to pack up their food collections for the amazing charity Rhythms of Life, who feed and educate the homeless. We also managed to run about 6km and get in lots of sprints, squats and lunges in the process.

Tonight we had a whopping five new runners - Bryony, Annie, Hannah, Sarah and Amy - these people all decided for the first time to use their run tonight to do some good, so I think they deserve a cheer, don't you?! We told them all about missions and coach runs which are great ways to get involved in the community on a more personal level, and really see the difference you can make to someone's life first hand.

We also found out that GoodGym have some Big Half entries for just £10! GoodGym are also putting on some Big Half specific starter sessions where you can get help with your training and advice on your running technique (plus you get to do a good deed too!) - you can see if any fit with your schedule here.

After this big intro we had to get started with our evening run sharpish, so we headed out onto the terrace for a warm up overlooking the Thames, before heading North through central London on a 3km run. At every other set of traffic lights we stopped to do some squats and lunges, and even had an elderly man join us for our squat jumps.

The task: We arrived at Sainsbury's with time to spare, so while we waited for them to get the boxes ready for us to pack the food into, we did a speedy fitness session right outside. We worked on our legs, our glutes and also managed to sneak in a little arm exercise (a muscle group that runners often forget about). With the ever increasing strange looks from customers getting a bit overbearing we made our way inside to pack the food collections into boxes, ready for the charity to pick up in the morning. Once in boxes, and while we waited for the manager to show us where to put them, we took over the pasta aisle with some very well formed planking action - great work on the fitness for this run, team!

On the run back we practiced some sprinting techniques, focussing on backwards arm drive and positioning ourselves upright.

Tonight was one of the strangest evenings of our lives, but it was certainly entertaining - see you next week for some more running and doing good.
