Report written by Bath runner
A FABULOUS STARTER SESSION tonight to KICK START SPRING into action at Goodgym Bath with a whopping 20 runners taking part in a 2k run to St Marks community centre in Widcombe, the task was phase 1 of prep work to wire brush and clean down the railings and main gates ready for painting at a later date.
OMG!!
WELCOME, WELCOME, WELCOME to Penny, Kerri, Katy, Angharad, Rachael, Oliver and Emily.....Whoopee!! and High 5 or 7 as the case may be.
A few more announcements before we headed out for the warm up and headcount with a flowery theme for all the mothers out there doing their thing.
CONGRATULATIONS to ALISON
on completing 50 Good deeds and earning those Black thunder wings…. Yippee!! That’ll be another black t-shirt in the group, plus she’s now mission verified.
The run route out was a short run along the riverside to Widcombe and to our task destination. Alex was our host this evening, he had wire brushes a plenty to assist with the job of prepping the main gates and railings with face masks and gloves on offer this evening to provide suitable protection as we are working with old paintwork safety is important.
A lot of elbow grease from our wonderful members was required on this job but there was opportunity to take a break and be on ladder holding duty for those working on the gates. Squats whilst shining the lights was another one to a bit of Depeche Mode
TIME UP ON THE TASK
There was however enough time to enjoy some sprint 3’s before taking a steady run back to the leisure centre for our stretches and reminders that you’ll need to bring your ID along to group run for verification before you can embark on Missions or be paired up with your own Coach.
Thank you to Christopher for back marking and to Rachael and Penny for tonight’s fabulous pun this evening with too many to choose from this evening but we can bag the others for another day.
To further or benefit the residents of the City of Bath and the neighbourhood
