Another scorching evening at Goodgym Bath, 12 rather sticky runners came along for a lifesaving hearty task checking some of the defibrillators located around the city

well done to  Emma and Joe on getting a PB at The Two Tunnels 10k on Sunday in roasting conditions. Ollie was in charge of the timing.

Congratulations to Rodie who graduates on Thursday....Good Luck In your future.

A warm up out to have a demonstration on the defibrillator located on Manvers Street so everyone is singing from the same page and there was no confusion as to what need to be done.

We split up into three teams for tonight’s task to cover as many locations as possible, checking four vital points for each one, 1.The Ready status, 2. Battery and power supply, 3. Pads connected and in date and 4.Rescue kit with defibrillator. Teams were issued with a monthly check form and pen for each defibrillator to be ticked, signed and their destinations to cover in the allotted time.

TEAM 1- LONDON ROAD- Emma, Ollie, Mark and Lydia

TEAM 2-ROYAL VICTORIA PARK/PERCY CENTRE-Steph, Mary, Pascale and Chloe

TEAM 3-WIDCOMBE/OLDFIELD PARK BAPTIST CHURCH-Alison, Sam, Steve and Rodie.

We set off in different directions to reach our required locations getting  back to the leisure centre at the agreed time of 7.45pm for stretches and discussion on the task and votes on the best pun of the evening.

Check Mate

A fab pun from Mary and Pascale, great night as always. MARK and LYDIA topped the evening off with a spot of Kayaking (at their own risk) looked fun though, if you like water sports.

I started running at 34 & not looked back running from 5k to Ultra. I enjoy seeing people achieve their goals.
