12 GoodGymers tackled a 7.5k run down to Pimlico to deliver 350 leaflets for Open Age Charity.
Great to have you all along this evening!!
Unfortunately I couldn’t rustle up a Christmas task after much trying but we did have a task to warmup the Winter spirts of Westminster’s older population!!
Open Age are a charity which facilitates activities for the over 50’s , this week we were helping them promote their heavily subsidised Fitness class in the local sports centre.
A longer than normal run with not too many stops had us working hard as we navigated South to huge the Chuch Hill Estate. 3.75k in the bag and we had arrived. Splitting into small groups we took batches of leaflets and got delivering.
Flying around the estate, up and down the blocks stairs at super speed the 350 leaflets stood no chance!! All delivered across 12 blocks in 25 minutes of delivering excellence!!
With the job done we powered back to base with a Spring in our step adding a little more pace to up that heart rate nicely!
A stretch out and smile to finish a productive and and fun session!!
Next week we are off to One Big Family to make up he food donations to be served out to the homeless community!!
Remember the 19th will be our last run of the year and we will be doing a Mince Pie Run to Central London’s. Followed by a social! Be great to have you along.
Smooth Running
