WOW... what a beautiful evening to be out and about with 10 AMAZING people in Bath on a Goodgym run picking up litter in Alexandra park after climbing the notorious JACOBS LADDER to the top and I forgot to count how many steps but boy was it worth it, the pictures really don`t do it justice with tonight's run taking a sweet 7k.

A very warm welcome to a fellow Turk Tayfun who has joined us tonight and I have to say what an amazing job he did for his country. Lovely to see Anna back tonight after being poorly and she came up with tonight`s pun.

To cut a long story short tonight's task for the homeless was cancelled at short notice so our injured trainer Steph (who fainted on the stairs at home on Saturday and knocked herself out cold) was very happy to have the lovely Pascale along tonight to assist with a change of plan and route ... Thank you so much Pascale.

We held a quick discussion on which park to attend and John came up with the mountainous route up JACOBS LADDER to Alexandra park which opened to the public in 1902 to commemorate the coronation of Edward VII and named in honour of queen Alexandra. We grabbed a breath and a group photo at the summit before splitting in BOYS vs GIRLS to litter pick for 15 minutes, The girls made light work of it finding all sorts of things headphones being one of the HOT PICKS and so took the title of most rubbish collected. Although Rob had his own little bag going on.

It was time to move on and head back down SHAKESPEARE AVENUE toward the TWO TUNNELS linear route heading back towards Oldfield park litter picking on the way before arriving at SANDPITS for some rich pickings and a chance for the group to have a fitness session using the equipment in the park, but I`m not sure Anne's pole dancing was on the cards and this gave the boys a chance to show off their upper arm strength with Ellen and Rachel using the see saw for squats galore.

We arrived back at the leisure centre in the nick of time and I have to say I feel very humbled to run with such an amazing bunch of people who are ready to work together whilst doing good in the community ... High five to you all.
