We had 1 hour and around 500 flyers.

We all adopted our own techniques, in an attempt to whizz around as many houses as possible. Mary's technique was my favourite. Posting a flyer through one letterbox, and then stretching out her body and arm to reach the letterbox of the house next door to save her time in walking around. Or if this was not possible, she hurdled the boundary wall to post to the next door neighbour.

We jumped from street to street and quickly got through hundreds of flyers. Dogs, spiders and garden rubbish all attempted to deter our determination but we amazingly got through them with the help from Ruth finishing up the remaining stack.

That's a whole lot of flyers for Julian House which hopefully will encourage people to sign up to their Circuit of Bath walk to raise vital funds for their charity.

Well done all!

Each week we have been setting ourselves a fun challenge to keep us all motivated to keep running while we have been locked down.

The challenge in the past week has been to take selfies outside pubs in Bath when we are on our regular runs. It’s not quit the pub trip we planned but hopefully it didn’t turn into a pub crawl for anyone!

There were some fantastic pictures sent into the GG Bath WhatsApp group from all over Bath. In particular, Ruth modelled some amazing hats, Max found some pub signs with some animals on them and Steph found a wagon (well, sort of)!

It really helped keep me motivated to keep going this week and I have heard from others that it really helps them, so thanks so much for engaging.

Next week we are running 5km - but with a twist!

This week our challenge at GG Bath was to include some hill sprints into our fitness routines. The challenge was to go for a run and find a hill (not too hard in Bath!) to sprint up it as fast as you can for 10s, 10 times over. So overall you would be sprinting uphill for 100s. No mean feat!

Although lots of us regularly run, sprinting is something that most of us never do, so its a great way to push our body outside of its comfort zone and increase our fitness levels.

We had entries from runners completing their challenge all over Bath and it was great to see the images sent into the WhatsApp group. This helped motivate me to get out there and do my sprints and I know other runners benefited from the support from the GG Bath community, so thanks to everyone who engaged.

After feeling the benefits of these hill sprints (I was worn really quickly, I slept really well and I ached in ways I don't usually ache from running) I am going to start including hill sprints into my regular training - are you?

This week the challenge is another fun scavenger hunt, but with a twist! I look forward to seeing your entries!

To keep us all motivated here at GG Bath we have been taking part in weekly challenges. This week the challenge was to take as many pictures of things beginning with ‘B’ as possible.

We had a much wider range of items that I expected to be honest! We had over 40 unique items that out runners saw on their runs during the last week. Some of my favourite were the bees, butterflies, blackbirds (even a blackbird bathing - 2 B's for the price of one!), some colourful bunting, beer barrels and Boris the Bat at Browne's Folly.

Thanks so much to all of you who took part and sent in your photos. I hope you had as much as we did!

We hope to see your contributions to the new challenge starting Sunday 31st May.

This week our challenge was to add up all of our Strava runs and complete the total distance from the leisure centre in Bath where we usually meet to the London Olympic Stadium - a total of 249km. The previous week we ran 168km, so it was a challenge that was within our reach, but only with some hard work and extra effort!

I'm delighted to say WE SMASHED OUR TARGET!! We ran a combined total of 397.94km in the GG Bath Strava group. That means we did the equivalent of running to the London Olympic Stadium and then running just over 372 laps around the track!

So a huge well done and a thank you is in order for everyone who put on their running shoes and dug deep to go that extra kilometre this week.

See here for next weeks challenge!
