Report written by Jo Kitching
It's Spring (apparently) and it's the last Wednesday of the month which means that we are back to Lakeside to assist with marshalling the 5k series.
Jen, Jo & Katie CR arrived early and headed around the lake for our run, Dave was resting up after completing the London Marathon on Sunday. Well done Dave.
Katie L and Yvonne joined us after the run and we wrapped ourselves up warm as the temperature was starting to drop. We distributed the numbers to pre-registered runners as well as directing runners who were registering on the evening. We had an abundance of pens but none of them seemed to work but Jen was the hero and produced her erasable gel pen which worked wonders.
Once the registration was completed we watched the runners on the first lap then headed to filter in runners towards the finish funnel at the end.
We reminised about older TV shows such as Round the Twist, Fraggle Rock and Round the Bend before heading home to warm up.
We'll be back next month and hopefully it'll be slightly warmer.
