Wow! what an evening helping light up the streets of Southampton helping marshal Cancer Research UKs Shine night walk, a 10k night walk raising money and awareness.

We had a bumper crop of goodgymers which split into two groups on two different marshal points - Ellie, Abby and Justin were on one point and Steph, Julie (who joined us for her first task!) and myself were placed outside the duke of wellington pub accompanied by live music.

There were 1600 walkers and several spirits to keep high. We lit ourselves up brightly and spent many hours cheering clapping and dancing to lift everyones spirits.

Down at our marshal point we had several shouts of (best marshals tonight!) and also commentary that we must have been in the pub for a pint we were that jovial!

Once the last walkers had come through the team got stuck in helping collect and remove course signage. It was an amazing evening and my face is still aching from all the smiling. We look forward to coming back next year!
