8 GoodGymers ran 7k to help One Big Family Homeless Charity make 150 sandwiches for the evening’s food distribution.

Amazing to have a influx of new and returning GoodGym runners this evening!! Thank you all for coming along for the sweaty Central London Run!

We weaved our way South through the busy Central London streets and Royal Parks the 3.5k to Ebury Estate where we met Mike and the very compact team at One Big Family.

A mountain of bread, cheese, jam and spread lay ahead! Splitting into 2 groups to had the cheese crew and the Jamers! Keeping the spreading beat to some of the most for toe tapping tunes ever made!

Double spreading, triangles, rectangles cutting methods and bag tying Techniques caused a lot of controversy amongst the Cheese crew in particular!

With 25 minutes on the clock the deed had been complete just before our outdoor food preparation area got a heavy sprinkle of rain.

With rain drops to dodge we zipped back at a springy pace back to base working up a sweat in the humid London evening air.

All stretched out and ready for a refuel we headed off with a exercise/volunteering combo on the bag!

Hope to see you all next week for our visit to Ark Atwood Primary School memorial garden to put the finishing touches before the grad opening!
