9 Westminster GoodGym greats ran 7.5k and moved 10k to deliver 400 leaflets for Open Age Charity to get the word out about their new physical activity classes for the over 50’s.

Getting our minimum daily allowance of steps cracked in a 90 minute of GG action!! A strong 3.5k run up to Paddington Green where we burst into delivering action! A super speedy team tonight were masters of the delivery leapfrog Technique!! Zipping up each road in almost precision formation!!

Road after road helping to reach some of Westminster’s more difficult to reach residents who would love to come along to a physically active, socially inclusive and heavily subsidised exercise class, but they just didn’t know it was going on!!

Leaflet piles going down fast we made it to our furthest North point where we nipped around the Estate for a final Push before turning on our heels and running back to base!

With time running short we took the direct route back for some added running thrills along Oxford street after a little sheesha cafe pick me along Edgware Road.

All back we 90 minutes of solid physical activity helping out a lovely local charity.

See you next week for our visit to One Big Family!!
