What a beautiful evening to run up a GERT BIG HILL, well that's what our trainer Steph thought. although I'm sure the 20 strong team in Bath had other desires in their minds. A great 6k run with 3k of this being a steep climb but as they say what goes up must come down.

A very warm welcome tonight to Lucy, Nick, Helen and Kim, it was great to see so many new faces along and a warm welcome to Jo who came all the way from Finland to be with us tonight (a girl can dream)

GoodGym Bath stepped out of the spotlight of the regional news this week and headed up to Odd Down cycle circuit where they provide many cycling session for all abilities including the Wheels for All who have specially adapted bikes, so from children learning to cycle through to the disabled its the place to be seen on wheels.

The hill up is never an easy one but splitting into two groups for this one Pascale leading out first followed by the next group and boy they were made of TUFF STUFF tonight opting for the BEAST (Holloway for those who are familiar with this steep hill) with a regroup at the top in the form of squats before taking on the next hill much longer but less steep with a few walking lunges and hill sprints thrown.

Felix was there to greet the group and soon identified two keen cyclist in the group to take charge of the CLIPBOARDS whilst the others checked the bikes over for any faults in a super safety check with a chance for a ride (at their own risk) In all we checked over 47 bikes for Felix and the group had some fun. It was a struggle to get them to say goodbye to this task and put the bikes away with just enough time to head back down to the leisure centre for a much needed stretch out.

Thank you to the clipboard boys Nick and Ben Thank you Pascale and Emily for supporting the groups and myself. Thank you Felix for allowing us to come along and help again. Thank you Google for the pun. Thank you everyone all blooming amazing people.
