A change of plan to the scheduled task this evening for 16 intrepid runners in Bath but of course that would also mean the addition of a hill or two to the 6k run to DONKEY LANE community garden .

A few announcements before the off with a warm welcome to another Goodgym tourist from GG Greenwich the lovely Amy....whoop!!!

Bath Heroes this month

Mary 8 Good deeds

Alison 188.9k

Remember everyone get signed up on Strava through your Goodgym profile and all your training runs will be logged, you also get to support your fellow runners/vice Versa. Could be a tiebreaker in the making regards hitting the next BIG 50!! Joe at 48 and Mary at 47.

welcome to Caitlin (my daughter) for her first taste of Goodgym fitness and no I didn't force her.

The first part of our run out was nice and flat, that was until we arrived at Hedgemead Park when it became apparent the

only was is up baby, for you and me now

I'm not too hard on them though as they'd already enjoyed a couple of hill sprints to warm up, plus had a breather at the top of the many steps with an opportunity to

squat it like it's Hot or until they drop

Sue was eagerly awaiting the group at the end of perfect view with her tools, our task to help weed to help with the maintenance of this rather large area.

The task for 35 mins

Clearing the Pathways through the herb and veggie area,. Cut back a rather large Kale plant, although this got rather out of hand with poor Jo trying to keep Joe and Sam on task but Sam was literally engulfed in Kale...Ha!! Pretty maids in a row working on the garden paths doing a fabulous job. Steve, Rob and the two Emma's tackled the stingers on the other side of the footpath allowing the young trees some breathing space.

Amy confessed to enjoying the hills with Holly, Megan and Caitlin taking the herbs in hand. Pascale had a lovely bunch of Kale to enjoy in her breakfast smoothie, that might make up for the extra mileage she did tonight.

Time up!!

Group photo and our very own Mexican led wave by Dora to top off the evening.

Thankfully a nice downhill finish back to the leisure centre for a few stretches.

Thanks to Emma for back marking and Joe for our fabulous pun tonight.
