Meanwhile in Westminster we headed down to the Strand and handed out food to rough sleepers on behalf of Rhythms of Life.

It was a hot day in the capital and would appear the night was just going to get even more humid.

We met as usual at Westminster University and talked through what the plan was for the evening AND of course gave all you newbies a run down of GoodGym.

Normally we would head down to Covent Garden to prepare the food but to save time yesterday we cracked open our supplies at the Uni and got to work.

20 packages made up in approximately 8 minutes. Each consisting of a sandwich, crisps, fruit and chocolate as water had already been handed out.

We grabbed our packages and after a run through of all things health and safety we headed off.

We weaved our way through the back streets and popped out in Trafalgar Square. Headed across the road and began handing packages out and talking to people.

Most accepted the food and thanked us for what we're doing. I just wish we had more.

We regrouped and head back to base at pace with a few intervals thrown in just because lol.

Thanks for coming out to join us.

Hopefully we will see you all next week.
