Bath Report written by Bath runner
Whoopee!!
It was a Flying af....Fair tonight at Goodgym Bath with a double dose of Flyering for Julian house for their circular walk of Bath raising funds for the homeless and Bath City Football club which is a community owned club for some upcoming matches so if your into Football show your support,
10 runners
10 K
100's of Flyers
Nice to see some of our lovely runners back from their holidays and missing those who are on holidays but that doesn't stop operation Goodgym Bath from functioning.
Good luck to Pascale and Alison who are racing in Salisbury at the weekend.
No time to dilly dally tonight for a longer undulating run around the city of Bath spreading charity and community news for upcoming events but rest assured there was still lots of chances to work on our core strength with the added toning benefit, but no time for fun at the fun fair.
It was certainly no picnic in the park this evening but definitely all the fun at the fair.
A lot of flyers posted and a lot of ground covered so a win win situation for everyone concerned. Well done !! Great efforts all round at Goodgym Bath this evening.
A mixture of speed work with some looping to keep us as one this evening and it was literally seconds to spare for the final push back to the leisure centre. I have to say everyone worked their little socks off tonight on s slightly undulating route but still managed to smile and give their lovely trainer some cheeky stick.
Thank you Steve for tonight's pun and Mary for back marking.
Please remember to bring your documents for pairing or missions to the next group run, let's reach as many isolated older people that we can. We need to make this happen.

In at the deep end
Well you might think so, but certainly not for 15 runners in Bath this evening and they took the 4k run to Cleveland Pools in their stride. Find out more about this amazing place and see how you can help with getting it reopened http://www.clevelandpools.org.uk/ and at their heritage open weekends.
The task tonight was Pollarding
Hmmm!! What might that be? I hear you say, well it's a method of pruning shrubs and trees to keeping them smaller than they would naturally grow along the riverbank. This prevents them from getting too big and slipping into the river itself.
Welcome to Danielle
Joining the Goodgym Bath crew tonight.
Congratulations to David from GG Bristol on his 100th Good deed this evening... Three cheers ...Hip...Hip..Hip..Hooray!!
Nice to have David joining us from Goodgym Bristol and Sarah our very own coach run queen along.
A beautiful summer evening so the obvious choice of route along the canal path to the Heritage pools. A treat for some of tonight's group who are visiting for the first time.
On arrival Sally our host gave a brief insight into the pools history before arming team Goodgym with the tools for the job. One group took on the pollarding task, whilst the others tackled the weeds in and around the children's pool.
Tim proved to be a master at pollarding showing an artistic style and Danielle got stuck into the pool weeds showing she wasn't out of her depth on this job.
Lucy found tiny frogs, she seems to attract them wherever we go.
35 minutes in total on the task
One very happy host and 15 satisfied runners = A Win Win situation.
Time flies when your having fun and that was certainly the case tonight with just enough time to catch that snap before heading back to the leisure centre.
Thanks to Mary for back marking and to Sally for tonight's pun which was a winner with the ladies.
