Emerald Excursion STaR 19ks

A cast of thousands again at the start in Annandale. Actually about a dozen at 6:20am. First up was a loop of Annandale where Timmy and JB ran off the front without a map and were last seen heading for Melbourne before we said you go straight. They didn't learn their lesson and bolted away again only to miss a turn into a lane. Lets hope Timmy and JB can follow marshall's instructions at the Sydney Half or they may keep running to Homebush.

After that shambles we finished our 5k loop of Annandale and headed across Anzac Bridge and did a few loops through Pyrmont and Darling Harbour. I stopped for a toilet break and the others ran off going long or short depending on what they needed. I proceeded through Chinatown and then back through Chippendale and Ultimo before deciding the run was a bit too short so went via the fish markets and across the Anzac Bridge again to the finish.

All up 19.1ks in 1:29:14. Average pace of 4:40 per klm.
