A beautiful sunny evening in Bath, with a flat but scenic 3k route for nine amazing Goodgym runners to Manvers Baptist church but this time to paint the walls a subtle shade of green with a contrasting racing green for the woodwork.

Great to see the return of a few familiar faces tonight from being super busy people or having had some lovely holiday time ... Lucky things .

Sam and Ed kindly offered to lead tonight's group giving Steph a chance to back mark for a change and it gave me a chance to chat to the group whilst on the move.

Headcount and warm up out of the way, the guys took the scenic route alongside the canal and they even stopped for a regroup with Helen leading on those super squats we love so much before Moving on along and over the bridge into the Southgate centre where Steph had the group down on the Turf with a little PR stunt, a Super Seven minute rotating circuit session, just a few moans and groans as they Felt The Burn.

We arrived at the task in good time enabling us to devote a good 40 minutes on the job and as always Our host Pete was organising us within minutes . The Tall People painting high(that'll be Ed and Sam) everyone else going low and Helen cutting corners (well hopefully not) Mary manage to paint herself with Lucy, Miriam and Sarah covering as much wall as humanly possible whilst Joe was getting all nostalgic in a Laurence Llewelyn Bowen style colour scheme or was it Carol Smiley.

So after the changing rooms time was up and we grabbed the obligatory group photo, our host Peter gave us an added challenge tonight. This was set by one of the parishioners to complete a marathon distance running a measured loop 67 times in total to celebrate the Paralympics and all monies raised will go to Childline, so with a little help from Goodgym Bath covering 10 laps the target is almost reached.

Time for a stretch and chat about everything Goodgym, we even spotted the bike Steph painted for Tour of Britian City display at these very point.

Thanks Joe for tonight's pun and everyone for yet another Fabulous job done in our Beautiful City.

A reminder to bring your ID documents for checking at the next group run.

A beautiful evening for a FANTASTIC 13 at Goodgym Bath tonight for a 5.4k run out to Royal Victoria Park and tonight's task to Rake the sand and litter pick along the way .

A very warm welcome tonight to Lydia who will be leading Goodgym Bournemouth when it launches very soon , she did a sterling job of getting everyone signed and delivering the welcome speech to the group .

After a warm welcome to SIX new faces Joe,Claire,Rachel,Sarah,Kirsty and Mary. We made headway with a bit of flyering on route for a pro refugees event being held at the Guildhall on Saturday .

We took advantage to re group a few times and had quiet a crowd joining in our triceps dips along the way in Kingsmead square before the final stretch taking us into the Marlborough lane entrance.

No time to waste (pardon the pun) litter pickers and rakes handed out the group soon got to work and before we knew it time was up , so not even a chance for a quick play around before our group photo .

To be FAIR with the entire park litter picked and sand raked throughout and the busy skate park having a clean sweep there wasn't much time for anything so without further a do we packed up and made our way back to the leisure centre for a stretch out and reminder to bring your ID if you wish to be paired up with your very own Coach .

Thank you Rachel for tonight's pun and everyone for being amazing people .

A Happy Birthday to Lara for the weekend .

Aurevoir to Kenta who is going home to Japan , we will miss you !!! Charles do Bath Half and he will return to join us .

Finally a HUGE thanks to Pascale for covering me whilst reaching the half way point in my life, she did me proud .
