Ash Walkers idea:
"Choose a scenic local 5k route, grab some friends or do it alone, and run 5k at exactly 4pm Greenwich Mean Time on the 27th of November 2012.
Take video and still pictures while running to later upload
Last year there were more than 30 participants from no less than 8 different countries. Let’s see if we can get 100+ people from 20+ different countries and at least 30+ different cities/towns......"
See the following to pages for more info:

Even though we're in NZ, and the idea started in NZ, Ash chose 4pm GMT, because well, Greenwich is the centre of the world! The downside is that makes the event tale place at 5am on the 28th Nov.
Keep in touch to check the location...
and feel free to sign up where ever you are in the world...

You are all awesome. Keen to make the most of every day -
What a way to start that day: fitness, beautiful sunrise, company of friends and a yummy breakfast before most people have gotten out of bed!Rough plan will see us run along the waterfront, up Mt Vic to watch the sunrise (about 5.45AM) and get some pics/video, then back down to somewhere for breakfast (any suggestions?). Should be back down by around 6.30-6.45AM.
:-)
