TAUNTON Fitness Club is starting the summer with a bang.

Sunday saw the graduates of the Taunton Couch to 5K programme complete two laps of Longrun Meadow.

Spectators and pacemakers were there to help the runners around the course.

And there were plenty of cheers as each graduate stepped up to receive their unique C25K medal and a certificate recognising their achievement.

You can register for the next Taunton Couch to 5K programme in the summer at taunton-fitness.uk/c25k.php.

Meanwhile, the Sunday cycling group enjoyed the perfect weather with a ride to Langport and back.

On Tuesday, the remainder of the couch to 5K programme graduated, and the post lockdown running groups met for the first time.

The Wednesday social cycle group are meeting at the Crescent Car Park at 6.30 pm for a route looped through Bradford-on-Tone.

And on Thursday (June 3), the Walking Group meets at 6pm at the Viridor Building, Priory Bridge Road, for a walk by the River Tone.

Membership of Taunton Fitness Club is free, and members may participate in any of the activities.
