An EGG’cellent group run tonight for the 10 runners who weren’t away on holiday for a 8k run and combination of Two Task Tuesday for Action on Hearing Loss for a spot of gardening and Food drop for a surplus food drop, a great volunteer project set up by students at Bath University, check it out and download the App https://www.fooddrop.co.uk/ looking forward to doing a whole group run for them in May.

Welcome back to Lydia and Hannah

Lydia from her winter hibernation, now where did I put that Red carpet?
A “How do you eat your cream egg?” during group warm up and headcount, that could of been a mistake with most of us either boycotting them or not very keen on them.

A Good Luck mention for Pascale and Sam both running Marathons this weekend, although in different countries.... Mary is also part of the Goodgym race team now... Whoop!! More Red Thunder.

Heading out as one group with Pascale leading to Action on Hearing Loss, she is our expert sign interpreter after all. Steph taking a splinter group of herself and Lydia off to do a quick food drop from Pret to the Genesis trust soup kitchen, so you might say we had a

TRIPLE YOLK’ER

The Food Drop App was easy to use, just a case of picking up the surplus food scanning and then dropping off to the set location for distribution. Unfortunately we we’re pipped at the post on this one tonight by another charity but we will be ironing out the glitches and doing more with Food Drop in May.

TROWEL TASTIC

Evan and Pascale soon had the main group hard at work in the residential gardens weeding and clearing around the extensive flower beds at the residential centre for 30 minutes hard labour and they achieved a lot considering numbers were down due to the holidays. STEVE did managed to break a trowel, proving how hard he was working.

WHEN TWO BECOME ONE

Steph and Lydia caught up with the others in time to capture a group photo and a bit of Lydia snap chatting and supervising before setting off back to the leisure centre for a good old stretch.

THANKS TO SAM for tonights pun

A reminder we have a Sunday run this weekend to Bath City Farm https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/sunday-run-to-st-marks-community-centre If you can make it, I promise doughnuts all round.

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