This is really nice guys.
00:15
Sir, my name's Tim.
00:17
My name's Gary Rutherford. How are you doing?
00:19
I'm well and how's it going on today?
00:21
It was painful but fun.
00:23
It's our first attempt at a High Rocks together and it might be our last.
00:30
It was an amazing event. It's our first time doing it but today was I suppose extra special.
00:36
Our very good friend passed away last week, Colin, and we were doing it in memory of him.
00:41
So although it was our first, it had a very special meeting today.
00:44
So we're delighted we did it. I think we did it for out.
00:46
Yeah, I think we did Colin for out today.
00:53
So obviously my background with Arc Fitness is an addiction recovery of fitness.
00:56
To see so many people engage in physical activity and exercise on a Saturday rather than out drinking and stuff like that.
01:03
It's really good to see. The atmosphere is brilliant.
01:06
Everybody's happy and in good form.
01:08
Maybe a bit dying but it's really nice to see. There should be loads more things like this here.
01:12
Yeah, the Arc Philosophy says motion changes emotion.
01:16
And if you look around, there are so many smiling faces today.
01:19
It doesn't just change the attitude of the athlete.
01:22
It changes the environment. It changes the atmosphere.
01:24
And it's a really beautiful moment to see.
01:26
Not just spectators but there's families and there's athletes all enjoying the experience today.
01:32
Great day for the city and a great day for sport in general.
01:35
Thank you Andrew.
01:51
Is your chef Lee?
01:52
I'm Corey Lewis.
01:53
This is Gary from Ghana as well.
01:55
What I'm doing today so I'm pretty glad I thought.
01:57
And where are you from?
01:59
So from Derry myself but myself and him were teachers over in England.
02:03
So because the High Rocks is on here in Derry I thought I'd come over and get involved.
02:07
And the hometown always nice to bring some people over as well.
02:09
I'm always friends with me as well.
02:11
I saw you came home and just to compete.
02:13
I came over and I saw her just thanks for the summer all as teachers here.
02:15
So we all came over to get involved in the event of the city.
02:18
It was nice to bring some people to everybody as well.
02:20
It's a good idea.
02:21
And tell you what, what were you doing here today anyway?
02:23
So getting involved in the High Rocks competition you know so it's great.
02:27
And Derry's always been a city full of exercise.
02:30
So I'm glad to see High Rocks taking over here too.
02:32
And bringing the atmosphere, a great crowd.
02:34
And such a lovely event on the other day.
02:36
How do you feel you got on today?
02:38
Aye, I enjoyed it aye.
02:39
So it's the first time I've done a double today.
02:41
I did a single one a few months back you know.
02:43
So a double is a lot easier.
02:44
That's how you do each other one.
02:46
But still good.
