See you soon...

Meanwhile in BestMinster...

12 GoodGym runners ran 6k to help at St Andrews Gym.

On a mild Wednesday night 12 GoodGym runners hit to the streets of Westminster for a 6k run to help out at St Andrews Gym and also bid farewell to our trainer Cory.

We welcomed 4 runners on their second run: Hermoine, Hannah, Felicity and Catherine. Hope to see you again next week?

We headed out down a busy Oxford street, with some dynamic sidestepping we beat the sale shoppers and sprinted down the hill to say “Hi” to the royals at Buckingham Palace. Nina was hoping for a secret spot of Prince Harry - no luck.

Swooning over the Prince complete, we then split into two groups - with the super keen runners opting for a leg round St James park, and a quick wave a the park keeper house. Whilst the sensible folk opted for the run through the park.

All back together, and it was time for some fun, or at least that is what Cory told us. We hit the curb for some step ups, and star jumps, finished off by a quick sprint to our location, St Andrews Gym.

Inside St Andrew’s Gym, we had time for a quick hydration stop, and it was straight back to work. 12 minutes on the clock, it was time to get this place cleaned up. Spray at the ready and we were off, treadmills (our least favourite thing), benches, weights - all spic and spam. With time still left on the clock it was time for a mini HIIT workout. 5 minutes Cory said, it will be easy he said.. Into the Yoga room we went, and along came the exercise ball - all on the floor and the mission was to pass the exercise ball round the circle whilst lying on the floor. A very secret AB workout complete and it was back the running.

A couple of straight kilometers back to our location, and we had some very happy runners who were glad it was on to the stretching.

One final thing - the farewell speech from Cory. We are sad to say goodbye to our lovely trainer Cory who has been helping us do good in Westminster for the last 2 years. Cory has helped lots of runner beat the fitness blues and do some great things every Wednesday, whether it is helping handout food to rough sleepers, clearing local church gardens, or helping out down at St Andrews. Good Luck Cory, we hope to see you running with us again sometime in the future.

Gym Runnies

For GG Westminster's final run of the year we welcomed first timers Pei and Mollie and a total of seven of us ran 3.4k down to St Andrew's Youth Centre to give the gym a spring clean.

Armed with anti-bac wipes, cloths, paper towels and sprays we went from machine to machine wiping away the gunk. And everybody knows a clean squat rack means you can increase your 1RM by 40%.

We even gave the mirrors a good old polish. Now the gym bunnies can watch themselves do biceps curls in high definition.

I think it took us about 12 minutes. We dropped off bin bags and then headed off to The Mall for our non-gym workout.

First up was secret surges. My favourite game. Numbers, sprinting, surging, trickery. You know what it is. And if you don't you need to get down to a GG run.

Then we had a two-team three-person relay with a brief pause for some work on our elbows. First timer Pei was announced arm driving champion of the evening.

Then on our way back we finished off the tougher stuff with a race up the stairs, incorporating our newly-discovered arm driving technique. Chris came out on top by about a millisecond.

The journey back was uphill but we were consoled by the sight of all those lovely Christmas lights.

Well done everybody. GG Westminster is back on the 4th Jan. I hear it's the best way to work off all those extra mince pies.
