10 Westminster GoodGymers ran 7k, climbed hundreds of stairs to deliver 400 leaflets for DAWS (drug and alcohol support charity).

Heading out the gate strong but steady as we made our way South to Pimlico weaving in and out of some quite back streets. We arrived at our destination for the evening ChurchHill Garden Estate.

A massive place so we split up Into 2 groups and got climbing!! Tackling some epic 9 story high blocks at top speed up the stairs really getting the legs working! Working in unison as a team covering floors in sequence for optimum efficiency!

35 minutes of continuous action later and we had climbed Everest as well as delivering over 400 leaflets to promote the work of DAWS (Drug and Alcohol service) who help those that need to access life changing help and support in Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea, Hammersmith and Fulham.

We headed back up to Oxford Street working out way through Green Park and a sneaky short cut next to Sexy Fish.

Thanks for such great work tonight and for looking after me when I was feeling ill.

See you all next week when we will be helping St Andrews Youth Club in St James'.

Have a great week!

Smooth Running

Joel
