Slotted in the back of the netterbox!
3 GoodGymers made their way 5.7km to help the Bath City Football Club in Bath.

3 GoodGym runners put on their running shoes and delivered flyers around Oldfield Park. The flyers were advertising football matches that Bath City FC are playing over the Christmas period. We were tired and worn out after a deceptively hill run, but really pleased with what we had achieved!
Bath City FC is a community-owned club and their Christmas games are a great way of getting people together over the Christmas period. We have partnered with them before for tasks and it was great to work with them again last night.
The route we took meant we ran over 5km in total. We started in Lower Oldfield park, moved through parallel to Moorland Road and into the edge of Twerton. We finished flyering down Maybrick Road just as it finished raining. Perfect timing!
Overall it was a successful evening. Despite there only being 3 of us we delivered over 500 flyers! It was a great team effort for a cold Tuesday evening!
Thanks!
Thanks to Bath City FC for giving us the chance to get some great exercise and thanks to Emily for awesome pun this week!
Upcoming runs:
- We have been asked to do some bucket collecting at the Christmas markets in Bath
- Next week we are putting up Christmas decorations at a shared living space. This will be a really fun task to get you in the festive mood!
- We have another fun Christmas task and a GoodGym social on the 10th December

Thank you to Sam & Emily for pushing me at the end of that run. I'm really enjoying the 'GoodGym' experience. (The jelly babies were the highlight of the evening. ;) Thanks Emily haha)
Oh & good luck to Bath City FC. Hope to see them in the Premier League in a few years. :)
Thanks for coming along and helping us out, Will. It was great to have you along and we really couldn't have achieved what we did it without you! Hopefully we will see them playing in the Premiership one day!
