Leaf(fit)ing
7 GoodGymers made their way 7.4km to help their local community in Westminster.
- Wednesday, 2nd of August 2017
- Led by Joel Wiles
7 energy filled GoodGymers smashed out 7.5k of running plus 2.5k of walking to deliver 250 leaflets for the charity Open Age!
After a brutal downpour during the day only the fearless remained!! Welcoming along 2 GoodGym newbies Neil and Adam for their first of many sessions with Red Thunder!!
Nipping and ducking away from as much of the Central London foot traffic as possible on out nearly 4K run out to the very North West of the borough.
Once we were there we divided out the plentiful leaflets to promote a multitude of free physical activities for the over 50's in Westminster. We then got Speed posting! Mainly in pairs and using the patented leapfrog technique we zoomed up the streets delivering to the houses/flats at hyper speed!
Loads of great chat and fun vibes talking about the world, training, running and GoodGym!
With a final sprint finish we had completed our mission!! Delivering 250 leaflets in 40 minutes of breath taking accurate action!
All that was left to do after a running group selfie was to amp up the pace for speedy run back to base! Zipping down Harley Street to finish the evening before we stretched out and headed off with a top task complete!!
Hope to see you all again next week! We are off to prepare the food for One Big Family homeless charity. Sign up and come along!!
Smooth Running
