In the leaves we trust.....

3 days into the week and we are all still smiling…. I feel GoodGym most definitely has a part to play in the sudden rise in post Christmas and New Year happiness. Think about it, why else would we all be happy the first week in January after a blissful break?

Anyhow, as with Hackney yesterday we started a fresh for the New Year.

New start location, new people and a lot of love.

We are now based at the Regents Street Campus of Westminster University smack bang in the middle of town. Literally a 30 second walk from Oxford Circus tube station and a host of other stations and stops. You now have noooooooo excuse ;-)

After an in depth intro on how GoodGym works we were off. Our task today following a 3 mile loop of Regents park was hit the canal and give it a spring clean.

Its been a while since we headed down there and we thought as the rain looks like it was going to hold off for an hour or so why not go the long way. I of course didn’t tell them I was doing this so when we arrived and they were advised as to the distance that I had just fooled them into covering there was silence lol…

This is trick that I have been using for years, take people to a place where they have no point of reference, no concept of distance and keep them smiling, I promise you it works. Its all in the mind. Obviously this wont work if you try and fool people into running an ultra when they have only ever run 5k but for shorter distances I feel in a group setting with supportive people around you it will always come together.

25 minutes worth of leafing done and dusted bags filled and we headed back the short way arriving safely at our new front door 5miles deep.

Great run, great people, great times….

Thankyou for joining us tonight we hope to see you again…

In the mean time, please continue to do small things with great love….
