We all got up at 8am (most of us didn't know there was a 8am on Saturdays) and went to Bristol, we arrived and after a bit of luck and blagging, parked almost next door to the event site. Colour Pursey inspected us after we had pinned on our Sport Relief socks and runner numbers and we marched to the main site, we had plenty of time to spare and we were interviewed by Radio Bristol, played with some circus equipment showing off more of our talents! We also met Brizzley Bear the Bristol Rugby team mascot.

At 11:30 we set off, we had to wait for everyone else to go so we could march as a squad, but we soon caught up, marking time until we could safely pass
people and even doubling in places!!! We marched cross the finish line at 11:44, not bad eh? Considering the heat and the hundreds of other runners-a job well done!.

And why did we do it? To raise money for children in the U.K. and across the world who don't have the chances or the resources we have and also to complete our bronze and silver Duke of Edinburgh awards.
