Sunday 20 September – Sydney Bridge Run

Current location: Botanical Gardens
11.11am, Eating some brekkie. Post-run. Today was the Sydney Bride Run, which as the name suggests, is a run across the Sydney Harbour Bridge. There are a few events, including a marathon, a half marathon, a 9km run and a 5km run. My friends Michelle and Allison and I did the 9km – which is one of the longest distances I've run in a while! – but it was really good! The atmosphere was great, and we all managed to keep running the whole time, and finished it in just under an hour, which is what we wanted. Afterwards, we went to the VIP tent (because we are fancy work for New Idea) and had a scrummy sausage and egg brekky, met Jesinta Campbell, then went to meet our friend Julie, who did the half marathon. Legend!

Afterwards, I went to the Forresters to meet Andy and my friends Emily (who also did the Bridge Run) and Maddie, drinking white wine in the sun, then red wine when the sun went down.
