A Striders training run so close to home, I couldn't miss it. Jogged the 1.5ks over to the start and went off with a very small 6:20 group of four of us which picked up 2 more late starters of Silver Fox and Jonathan Worswick(six ft veteran) while inside Centennial Park.
We start near Fox Studios and do a lap of the park and then head up and out of the Woollahra gates down Ocean St to Edgecliff. We then run up New South Head to the Cross and down along William St. You then run up past St Marys Cathedral and down King St all the way to Kent St.
From there it is down to the Rocks and up over the bridge, and then a loop around Blues Pt and Luna Park and back over the Bridge again. Then around the Quay, Opera House, Botanic Gardens, Boy Charlton Pool, Harrys, Garden Island and back up through the middle of the Cross. Then it is back to the start via Oxford st, Victoria Barracks, past the SFS and SCG to finish at the Lang Rd gates of Centennial Park.
All up I ran 28.7ks in 2:16:12. Average pace of 4:44 per klm. The pace was pretty quick for me from the start. But happy to get through it. Ran back through the park with Virtual who was going to a SWEAT BBQ Brunch.
