The Happy Half Marathon

Got back to Sydney yesterday with the cold. Woke up at 4am feeling miserable and feverish and not wanting to run at all, but the thought of burning the $80 entrance fee just like that was more horrifying.

Part of the route overlapped with the SMH half marathon, but this was more fun as we ran across the Harbour Bridge and there was only 1 big lap around the city as opposed to 2. Managed to finish in about the same time as the last half despite the runny nose, appalling fast food diet in NZ and no training at all in the last week. Cramped in the last 500m, but that was to be expected.

One of my happiest runs to date :D
