With only a day until Valentine's, love was clearly in the air for the remainder of GoodGym Bath, but a Magnificent Seven runners warmed up and began a scenic shuffle around Bath's Georgian backstreets before embarking on a Strava-based fitness challenge.

Welcome back to Allie on her first Goodgym Run of 2018!

Our first challenge was a fitness test with a twist: using Bath's famous Circus as our canvas, we succeeded at drawing a Valentine's heart before dropping for a set of quad-burning squats, enough to make even Steph wince!

Welcome home to a very tanned Pascale who's returned from the warmth of Kenya and will be leading next week's pursuit!

Continuing our romantic theme, we ran away from the Circus and swept past the Royal Crescent before dropping down into Royal Victoria Park.

Tonight's task

The team turned their attention to cleaning the skate park, before hanging up their litter pickers for a spot of raking in the play area. With the sand all smoothed out, there was just enough time for a play on the swings before a quick run back to base for a cool down stretch and some superb punnage from Allison and Steve!

Huge thanks to Pascale, Sam, Tom, Allie, Steve and Allison for your enthusiasm on my first leader run! You all smashed it tonight!
