It was 6:30am and minus one on a Sunday, so obviously we went to help out at Chelmsford half marathon! They also do a 10k and 5k.

Started off easy, collecting bags into 500 number categories. Then the races started. Then Jane left.

Angela had a fantastic system planned and began to implement, however there were some issues with it, where others didn't play ball.

Martin swiftly started throwing bags to the 5k finishers.

Was nice to see cameos from Ben (who helped out), Rich and Fay who cheered on, Andy who DJ'd, and Laurie who had the cutest baby of all time with her.

Anyway, everyone seemed to have a good time and enjoyed the race, we got a lot of compliments on the bag system, and we will all be running it next year I am sure!
