No football tonight at Goodgym Bath, just a spot of running around some of the beautiful Georgian architecture in Bath for the lucky 15 who came along on the 4K to support one of the Guerrilla gardens situated at the top of Park street.

A reminder that the Goodgym Olympics are on Saturday 30th June, Mary has created an amazing Olympic torch to hold aloft to represent Bath Area.

We kicked off tonight with a warm up and headcount with a footie theme (name your hero) to go with the flow before taking the most architecturally scenic route to our task destination, the Guerrilla garden situated at the top of Park street, find out more about them http://transitionbath.org/guerrillagardening/

Bill at the Top of the Hill

A few hill reps naturally and Bill was there to welcome the group and set the tasks ensuring getting the most out of the allotted time enabling us to make a big impact, plenty of room to spread out weeding and cutting back along the footpath whilst having a good old natter. I’m not sure the little mouse 🐁 was happy as it scurried across the path to safety but he did put Lydia’s vocals to the test.

Whistle while we work

A perfect evening for a spot of gardening in the evening sunshine but sadly it was time to say goodbye and make our way back through Royal Victoria Park and to where it all began for our stretches and a recap on the pun options for the run report.

Thanks to Alison for back marking and to Mary for a fabulous pun.
