18 GoodGymers ran 6.5k to One Big family Homeless Charity in Victoria and prepared a feast to be distributed to Westminsters homeless community.

A glorious early evening in town taking a sightseeing tour through the Royal Palaces where there must have been a major party happening tonight with the around security on show.

3k of swift running and speedy road crossing with 2 groups dodging through the rush hour foot traffic.

Meeting Mike at the Ebury Estate hut and getting washed up and gloves up before we got into our slick Sandwich production line, Cake cutting ninja pose and water filling trolleyed up.

6 loaves of bread buttered up the passed along to the jammers or ham and cheesers. A slick production line in place helped us make 100 sandwiches in 30 minutes!

The cake Ninjas had a tough job, firstly getting into the thick chocolate covered cake then not eating the cake which smelt so good!! Cutting up and bagging 6 huge chocolate cakes in double quick time was no mean feat!

The water fetchers filled 50 gallons on water into various containers ready to take out while a quick finish allowed us to raid the clothing donation store to take out new socks tonight on the food run.

After a quick photo shoot and we were off back to New Balance! 3k running at a good pace but with a few traffic light stops including a burst of pace up the Green Park Drag. A strong finish to the run from everyone!

Great to have you all along and hope to see you again next week when we visit ** Rhythams of Life Homeless Charity** where we will hopefully be distributing food donations around Central London.

Have a great week!

Smooth Running
