A Mint Task!!
8 GoodGymers made their way 4.5km to help their local community in Westminster.

8 Westminster GoodGymers ran 4.5k to the Oasis community garden to water the vegetable garden.
Heading out on the busy Central London streets we danced our way along a twisty turny back street route to the Oasis community garden nestled away in the back of the Oasis leisure centre.
Meeting up with Susannah we got to work with watering cans and buckets filling them, ferrying them across to the garden via a set of stairs or two before carefully watering the the plants to get the drying out flower beds in the best condition to grow some quality vegetables!
25 minutes of watering action went by in a flash and after we were given a few branches of Mint from the garden to nibble on we were on our way to a great new running raceway! Where we dominated three 400m laps of lamppost Fartlek action followed by 2 laps of all out effort on Race you Back high fiving relay. Some super speed was on display and great to see such great effort from all you Superstars!!
A 10 minute easy paced run back to New Balance rounded off a productive and fun group run!!
Hope to see you all next week as we head out to One Big Family Homeless Charity to help them prepare for the evenings Soup kitchen.
Smooth Running
