12 amazing Westminster GoodGymers ran 4K to help the Oasis Community Garden.

Starting with a huge welcome in particular to this evenings GoodGym first timers!! Great to have you along for a top Wednesday evening’s fun on the run!

A huge thank you to Frances for leading the charge to the Oasis Community Garden. Expert navigation and road crossing on point! Plus some exotic stretches at the end!

With 2.5k in the bag by weaving our around the Central London Foot traffic.

We arrived at the garden ready for action, grabbed the watering cans, brooms, brushes and buckets and got stuck in.

A triple layer of watering was required with some very thirsty herbs, plants, fruit and vegetables after a super dry, hot spell along with them doing a lot of growing!

Filling up the buckets and watering can by the not so speedy tap and the cold shower we filled carried and poured 100 gallons of water over the garden! The clean up crew weeded, brushed, swept and collected everything in sight to get the garden looking at peak beautifulness, ready to do some hardcore growing over their few weeks!

With everything garden side complete we had time for our evenings exercise to get turned up a bit with a 15 minute full body circuit around Bedford Square! High Five and return races dominated before a Powerful 4 minute non stop circuit racking up as many reps as humanly possible in 240 seconds!! We Pressed up, squatted, lunged, dipped to body conditioning glory! With a super session complete we cooled down with a short very busy run back to base!!

Thanks for coming along and hope you all enjoyed the session! Hope to see you all next week when we visit the Worlds Oldest Youth Club!

Smooth Running
