Run Hackney 2018
In 2017, I am still not sure why I agreed to run Hackney Half Marathon 3 legged with Andy.
In 2018, we take on the PARACHUTE CHALLENGE.
It symbolises Keen and all we stand for. It is our rainbow flag of inclusion. It is the absolute cornerstone of every single session. What better than to be 6 years old and spinning around in a giant swirl of colour; to pretend you are a shark underneath the waves, drawing in innocent beach goers; to lie down under canvas after a blast of activities and feel the cooling wind wash over you. Parachute games are as limitless as the creativity of our coaches.
To fly the Parachute through Hackney is to say anything is possible, to spread a message of inclusion and joy, to tell 11,000 runners and thousands more cheering fans every child deserves a chance to play.
OUR BRILLIANT TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS AND SESSION COORDINATORS WILL ATTEMPT TO RUN WITH THE PARACHUTE FOR 13.1 MILES!
We've completed our training: https://www.facebook.com/KeenLondon/videos/1701544503269835/

Thanks very much,
David
