25 energetic GoodGymers ran up to 6.5k to help the Oasis Community Garden.

A great turn out in Westminster this week!! Great to have you all along for such a fun session!

Starting off with an adventurous run to the Task with seemingly many variations of routes taken and much discussion on how everyone got there.

With so many helping hands we made short work of the last of our Gardening tasks at the Oasis Garden for the summer! Watering and dead heading with a bit of sweeping thrown in for good measure!

With a bit of time left we packed away the watering cans and headed off to Bedford Square for some all action circuits!! Smashing out tag team return running laps, core conditioning and some big time leg strength exercises!

A short run back a stretch out and we were away!!

Hope to see you all next week!!

Smooth Running

Joel

There was a bumper turnout at GoodGym Westminster this Wednesday, as a group of runners from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel joined us – hope to see you again next week guys! There was also a bumper crop of Frances’, as I filled in for Joel alongside the regular Frances, who led one of two groups to Victoria.

After a jog through central London and past Buckingham Palace, we reached our regular task at One Big Family, where we again split into two groups. One group made sandwiches and packed pastries which the volunteers hand out to homeless people around Victoria, while the other went with Graham and took turns at choosing exercises, ranging from some gentle stretching to burpees. The groups swapped halfway through so that everyone got a chance at doing some good.

With the task completed swiftly, we set off back to base – this time taking in the sights of Green Park, with some of us taking the opportunity to push the pace a little. All in all, a productive evening with the cooler weather making for an enjoyable run!
