S.I.S.T.E.R.

This year we - Kathryn, Amy & I - tackled the whole (12km) City-to-Bay. We even made special t-shirts with our team name - S.I.S.T.E.R.

It was an absolutely gorgeous day - although it was a bit hot when the breeze disappeared - & we were amongst a crowd of nearly 35,000 people.

The run definitely wasn't easy, but it did feel good (especially at the end.....when I got to stop :P ). I was also pleased with my time of 1 hour 41 minutes.

ducking & weaving...

We've spent the last few days in Adelaide - catching up with family, visiting the museum, shopping & (the main reason for the trip) running the 3km in the City-to-Bay.

After all the training it was nice to complete the run & I'm pretty sure we'll be attempting the 6km, or maybe even the full 12km, next year. I knew that there would be a lot of people, but I wasn't prepared for quite so many - the crowd was huuuuuuge (almost 31,000 apparently).

Before heading home on monday, we visited the Wittunga Botanic Garden. Haven't finished going through all the photos yet, we took a fair few. The ducks there are quite used to people (I suspect they get fed fairly often) & came quite close, perhaps hoping that our cameras would magically turn into bread.
