Team Bath AC will be  a key partner in this great initiative to Get Bath Running. Get Bath Running is a a not-for-profit campaign for the local community in Bath & North East Somerset by local running event promoters and activators to promote and support available COVID-secure opportunities for running and fitness in the Bath area.

Why we are getting involved.

  • Regular exercise (particularly outdoor exercise) and physical fitness will reduce your risk of catching COVID, and reduce the risk of serious outcome from COVID, whilst also supporting mental wellbeing
  • We are fortunate in Bath to be surrounded by great running routes and open countryside
  • Fitness levels plummeted in the UK since the first lockdown. What will our activity levels and the fitness of the nation look like in 6 months?
