Buttering them Up

Westminster Report written by Joel Wiles

19 of Westminsters finest GoodGymers ran 6.5k to One Big Family homeless charity and prepared all their food for the evenings food run for the homeless.

Great to have some GoodGym Newbies, our regulars and a number of returning GoodGym heroes!!

A super busy evening on Oxford Street was no match for our weaving skills as we ran south through Mayfair, Green Park, Victoria and on to the Ebury Estate youth centre where we met Mike who is the heart and soul of One Big Family Victoria.

Splitting up into Team Jam, Team Cheese, Team Ham and Team Cake we set up our precise production line for some speedy food creation!! We got into a brilliant rhythm cutting, buttering, filling and bagging and smashed out 300 sandwiches and rolls eking out every last drop of jam by the end!

A quick fill of the industrial sized tea urns and a swift clear up rounded off 35 minutes of productive, speedy and so very important work out the areas homeless community.

Like a flash we were off in unaccustomed darkness powering back towards base. Covering the first mile in no time before we took stock outside Liz's house. With one last big push up the Green Park drag we had worked hard!!

A quick stretch out and round of applause in the New Balance store for a Great GoodGym effort!

See you next week for some more fun on the run!

Spread, Butter, a-roll

Westminster Report written by Joel Wiles

30 super charged Westminster GoodGymers smashed 7k of running to One Big Family Homeless charity to prepare the food for the evenings food run and lift shift and stack a tonne of clothing donations!

Amazing weather and an amazing turnout this evening!! Thanks to everyone coming along, great to meet all the GoodGym newbies.

After the briefing we set about the evenings fun dancing through the Mayfair back streets navigating the big group away from as many busy roads as possible!

3.5k Steady running in the early evening sun through glorious central London taking in many of the biggest landmarks took us to Ebury Estate and the One Big Family Homeless charity.

After a bit of slow start we hit our stride getting a formidable sandwich production line going, an efficient bag packing area, Cake Ninjas slicing and dicing and the grafters lifting and shifting a huge amount of clothing donations to make space for a huge Tesco delivery for the new food bank.

30 minutes of frantic action and we had made up 120 food bags with a good selection of food and drink for Westminsters homeless community to fuel on. All the clothing donations had been shifted from the shed to the youth club, over humps, down lifts and Tetris like precision used in the stacking!!

We left as quick as we arrived but this time is 3 waves! All aiming to be the first back to the top of Green Park. David led the first group setting a great target for the next to groups to attack!! Isaac And the speedy crew chased hard to bridge the gap and all three groups arrived together at the top of Green Park after really pushing their own pace! Top work!!

A short trot back, a stretch out and a huge round of applause finished off a great Wednesday evening!!

I lied (by accident) and said we are going St Andrews Youth club next week that is the week after (28th). Next week we are off to the Oasis community garden to help hydrate and care for this community food garden in a unique setting!! Be great to have you along [sign up here] (

Have a great week

Summer scrubbing

Westminster Report written by Joel Wiles

13 sizzling GoodGymers ran 5k to St Andrews Youth Club to help keep the gym in top shape and threw in a double dose of shuttle running circuits.

A smoking hot evening in London Town provided a great setting for a few GG first timers! We headed off through the busy Central London streets working the pace as we made our way to The Mall for a series of shuttle sprints and high powered body weight exercises.

After our heart rates were jumping and the shuttles got a little competitive it was time to make our way to St Andrews Youth Club to help them out for the evening.

Unfortunately we were not able to do the task as planned as the hall was already in use so we gloved up and cleaned our way to glory in the busy gym. Working our magic we made the room sparkle our help is vital in allowing the Youth Club thrive by focusing the limited funding on activities for young people rather than maintaining the building.

Then we were off, heading up to Green Park to attack 12 minutes of body weight circuits! Smashing out Three 30 second efforts in a row of a Core blast, CV crusher and Leg basher increased the fitness big time before we ran back to base for a stretch out.

Great work everyone! Hope to see you all next week for our visit to One Big Family Homeless charity to help prepare the food for the evenings food drop!

Wash out

Westminster Report written by Joel Wiles

16 Soggy GoodGymers ran 5k to Rhythams of Life homeless charity to help clean the atrium.

A day that didn't go to plan for the squad or Rhythams of Life either. Following a break in where most of the organisations technology was stolen there was minimal food donations so we were unable to go and hand out the food to the local homeless community.

Slightly lacking the sized task we had hoped to have we made the best of it sweeping, hoovering, tidying and steaming the Atrium with 20 minutes of concentrated effort. We managed to put a smile back on Farais' face after a tough week back in the country following his trip to Kashmir where the organisation started the process of building a school.

Sure next time we visit we will have loads to do and get to deliver food.

With rain still going strong we left to run a longer loop back. Dancing around puddles and weaving through the foot traffic until we got to Green Park where we pushed the pace all the way up the drag with a few strong runners doubling back to increase the distance!

Arriving back to the New Balance store soggy but well worked out we stretched out before heading off to dry out.

See you next week for our visit to St Andrews Youth Centre.
