14 Westminster GoodGymes ran 5k to help St Andrews Youth Club.

Just to follow up on a couple of things I talked about at the start!

If watching or hearing about running London Marathon inspired you to run the ballot opens on the 30th of April for 5 days only! You have to be in it to win it so think why not enter! Click here for all the information on how to enter via Ballot, charity place or time qualification.

We need to get active organising ourselves for the GoodGym Olympics!! all the information on what it’s about and all things we need to prepare are here. Be amazing if we could get a team together! Sign up and let’s have a chat in the coming weeks about we can represent well!

Next week post Wednesday Group Run I thought I would be fun for anyone who fancied it if we went for a little social to refuel after the session!

So 2.5k through the heart of London Town to St Andrews Youth Club where we met Adrian the Youth Club manager. Splitting into groups we first had a little dirt out of the boxing kit store room while the second group cleaned the gym kit down stairs. Before we returned to the ground floor to find a revitalised garage store following on from our hard work on our last visit! We persuaded Adrian to finally get rid of the last remaining relics so the amazing and usable kit can be accessed for the brilliant activities.

We were even able to recycle some let’s say mature cricket and softball kit for our own summer sporting endeavours.

With a little time to spare we ran up to Green Park for a sharpe circuits blast focusing on our core and upper body conditioning!!

All back done and dusted at New Balance by 8!

Next week we are helping Open Age who are a charity who provide support and activities for Westminsters older and often isolated community. We will be distributing flyers about the lates courses to the most difficult to reach residents.

Smooth Running
