Little pickings

Meanwhile in Westminster on a beautiful bright bright night in our capital 13 brave souls head north to a Sayers Croft out post in search of litter to pick, plants, fruit, veg to water and of course logs to move.

We are always in search of new tasks especially tasks that involve an opportunity to work outdoors with plants and wildlife.

Sayers Croft at Paddington Recreation has been set up as a Forest School specifically to educate local young people on Nature.

After a 5k run there from our base our job was to pick up the litter, give some of the outdoor furniture a good clean, move lots of wood and logs from one point to another and water the plants and planters full of fruit and veg.

With 20 mins on the clock and lots of hands we were done in no time.

A task that was both educational and fun I hope you all enjoyed it.

A steady 5k run back and nothing but smiles as we made our way home through yet more bright bright skies.

Thanks for joining us. See you all next week.

Spring Circuit...

Meanwhile in Westminster we headed back to St Andrews youth centre to give their community gym its regular spring clean.

A quick briefing, a few announcements about hackney half and we were on our way.

It was mentioned that this was going to be the first night that we've run since it started to get a little brighter.

We made our way through the hustle and bustle to we hit the park, at this point it was time to work through the gears.

We arrived safely at St Andrews where we greeted by Adrian who gave everyone or your as many had not been before.

Then we got in to the task at hand clean clean clean till it was spotless.

Now why waste an opportunity to use the gym? We set up a few fitness stations and got to work, 1 minute on each and move on, running, squatting, balancing, core and an agility station.

Did we love it? of course we did? Did it make our run back a little bit harder? Maybe lol.

Till next time, thanks for coming.

Wet n windy Army

On a wet n windy blustery night we Goodgymers head south to the Salvation Army bearing gifts of food and clothing.

A bag full of clothes was strategically placed in the middle of the room and even before the briefing I suggested people picked what they felt would be easiest to carry. Socks, jackets, jumpers, tee shirts, leggings, the lot.

With 8 newbies and 10 regulars smiling and raring to go I explained why what we would be doing was so important and also what else they could get involved with if they so wished. Missions, pairing, races and on the odd occasion some fooding and drinking.

We headed out and decided to take the short cut as the wind had started to make itself known but with lots of chat the two miles flew by in no time at all.

We arrived safely and left all the supplies on the table and waited for our host to begin telling us all about how the Salvation Army works. It houses men only and only takes referrals and no walk ins. They have space for 109 people and mostly work with over 50s at that location. The Salvation Army helps people find work as well as preparing those who walk through their doors for life after homelessness.

With a q and a that lasted over 15 minutes as always we must thanks Anthony, Chris, Joe and the rest of the team for their time.

We said our goodbyes, a head back at pace to GG HQ, obviously no GG Westminster run is complete with out some hill sprints, intervals and lots of smiles.

Thanks for coming, hopefully we'll see you alllllll next week...
