Report written by Joel Wiles
10 GOodGym Christmas heroes ran 7k in a festive loop around Central London to give out 125 Christmas food parcels, 10 tooth brushes and 5 dog treats to Westminster’s homeless community.
Rounding off Westminster’s 51st and final Group Run of the year before a 2 week break. Look forward to getting the 20’s started right on the 8th of January!
Firstly thank you all for your amazing generosity!! Without that we wouldn’t have had a session!
Welcome to Sophie for her first GoodGym run!! Thank you to new Windsor and Maindenhead trainer Amy for coming along and lending a guiding hand.
After bagging up biscuit, mince pie, chocolate swirl, fruit filled Christmas parcels. We hit the streets on a mission to spread some Christmas cheer to Westminster’s homeless community!
Running through, Old Bond Street, Mayfair, Green Park giving out treats to everyone we saw. We made it to Victoria our main destination with one of the highest concentrations of homeless people in the country.
Splitting up into pairs we found our way around the maze of Victoria seeking out people who may not normally be able to access support.
Great to be able to help so many people but sad that there was so many people to help all the same!
Rounding off the deliveries as we ran through St James’s and back up to Oxford Street.
All finished off and stretched out with Christmas calling we said our festive well Wishes before heading off into the night.
Thank you for coming along tonight and the rest of the year! Hope to see you all again running strong in 2020!
Merry Christmas
