Kapiti Coast parkrun
13th January 2018
This morning I'm going to have myself a real good run
I feel alive
And the track is nice and dry, yeah
and the weather is warm
So don't stop me now
Don't stop me
Cause I'm doing parkrun
Having a good time
We are running stars heading up the track
Like tigers defying the laws of physics
Mancamp is a racing car passing Dan like Lady Godiva
He's going to go go go
There's no stopping him
And Sarah Riceman was first yeah
Two hundred kmh
That's why they call her Mrs run out of sight
She's travelling at the speed of light
I wanna see a hundred runners all of the time
Don't stop Amy Jones she gone got a pb
And so has Finn Bland
Don't stop Willem young
P Knighton, A Bland and A Needs, pbs as well
Don't stop me now (because I'm having a good run)
Dont' stop me now (yes I'm having a good run)
I don't want to stop at all
Mentions also for Stephen Mellor, Marija Bakulich, Malachi Duker, Leon Baker, Trish Cummins, Angela Campbell, Carolyn Marshall, Shannon Jeffries, Celia Fleck, Nathan Ferguson, Colin Stoner and Samuel Bland, who also secured pbs.
Original Queen lyrics below:

Tonight I'm going to have myself a real good time
I feel alive
And the world I'll turn it inside out, yeah
And floating around in ecstasy
So don't stop me now
Don't stop me
Cause I'm having a good time
Having a good time

[Verse 1]
I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm going to go go go
There's no stopping me

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm burning through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling at the speed of light
I want to make a supersonic man out of you

[Chorus]
Don't stop me now I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
Don't stop me now
If you want to have a good time just give me a call
Don't stop me now (because I'm having a good time)
Don't stop me now (Yes I'm having a good time)
I don't want to stop at all
