I was just musing that I know I don't have to buy a pin badge but it would be nice to have one but.......it is NHS couch to 5k and the nhs spend billions each year treating patients with symptoms due to poor lifestyle that I think it would be nice to be rewarded for good behaviour and achievments and maybe have a badge free or maybe a pound? 36 is very steep and as I said yes I know we can chose not to have one but do you see my point?

I meant £6 not 36.

I see your point, it would have been nice for the NHS to have made a one themselves and priced it at a nominal fee as a reward for saving them money in the future, unfortunately they don't do a badge so it's been left to a 3rd party to design and price (and they did it because everyone wanted one, guess there is no point in them making a loss) I bought one too and wear it on my work lanyard with pride :)
