Sydney City 2 Surf

On a beautiful, sunny Sunday morning, Pete and I squandered our weekly babysitting time to run in the Sydney City 2 Surf. I haven't run more than about 5 miles at any one time since arriving in Sydney so the 14km was a challenge! The scenery was worth the pain though and it's an amazing event with 85,000 runners (largest in the world apparently) winding all through Sydney and ending at iconic Bondi Beach. The usual line of stinky port-a-potties was not my favorite part, nor were the crazy hills, but ending with a boisterous sprint along the beach to the finish line was pretty great. Definitely something I (and my creaky old lady knee) will remember.
