We're Ai...leen bunch in Bath
11 GoodGymers made their way 5.7km to help their local community in Bath.
- Tuesday, 12th of September 2017
- Led by Bath runner
Tonight's 6k run for legs 11 runners was all about Flyering for various walks around Bath from Bathscape walking festival taking place throughout September to a circular walk of Bath for Julian house and some sugar smart leaflets thrown in for good measure.
GOOD HEALTHY STUFF
word was out that STORM AILEEN was set to join us for this group run but the only lovely ladies we were letting in this evening was
CARYL and KELLY
Caryl plays rugby for Bristol and Wales and Kelly a former Bristol player ... Epic stuff, so WELCOME to Goodgym Bath ladies.
HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to MARY hitting the BIG 50 (i don't mean age) she earned her Black Tshirt ...whoop!!
Well done to everyone who raced at the weekend, some great achievements for the GG race team and Bath.
A gentle jog out to warm up on the way out as the rain and wind made its appearance , the only other off putting thing might have been the 118 steps up to Alexandra park to the view point for a birds eye view of our beautiful city, i think everyone enjoyed a breather.
No time to stop though!! Aileen was fast approaching and if we didn't move swiftly it was going to be a washout in Bath.
A divided group on the street covering the left and right, however Oli was accused of defecting at some point. 157m of elevation just about sums up the effort put in this evening by everyone, dodging snappy letter boxes and driving rain weaving our way up and down the heights of the not so aptly named BEAR FLAT..... didn't feel very flat for the 40 minutes of delivering task.
Thankfully, what goes up must come down and the run back to the leisure centre was much appreciated amongst the group, although we did enjoy some single leg squats,lunges and walking lunges during the evening.
Thanks to Jackson for this evenings fabulous pun and Mary for backmarking.
A reminder that Nicolas leaving party is Sept 28th, so let me know if your coming.
We also have our 2nd Birthday Celebrations on October https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/goodgym-bath-is-turning-two
