Kelvin, today's Run Director, was a bit stressed this morning. There was lots to organise and the person with the key to the equiptment had arrived late ๐Ÿ˜ฅ. Everything came together in time and the warm up and briefing were given to a big group of parents and children.

The runners set off and a few minutes later, the first runners crossed the line, cheered by Kash and Steph who were marshalling and high fiving. Today's timekeeper took everyone back to the 90's as they shouted

Boomshakalak!

...as the first 2 runners crossed the finish line. They were equally excited by the next 105 too (but no boomshakalak-ing), until Jacquie, who was tailwalking in the traditional orange vest reached the finish line. Jacquie also stood out for other reasons, surprising the other GoodGymers with her presence, in a good way. Sevan was having a rare go at handing out finish tokens and managed to not mess it up.

So 107 finishers wasn't quite a course record. The number of participants at Pitshanger Juniors is consistently high though and they're building a great community which GoodGym is proud to be involved with. If you want to be part of it, sign up here for July.
