SSS 1 at North Sydney
A shortie to start the series. The Duke probably could've extended the course another km - perhaps into Luna Park or the Old BP site (south of 30).
Had a clean run but it was a real struggle up all the stairs & hills. At stages my nose was running faster than my legs...still have a slight cold but not as bad as Andy's.
Unexpected win with 600 in 38:33. Others 40-44mins - Andy, Richard G, Richard M, Brooner, Tom & a very nice! run by Keelan for his first 600.
My route: 1-10-9-8-9-7-6-5-4-3-2 then 20-22-19-28 from west-21-17-24-26-15-16-25-11-18-23-27-14-29-30 then the tough slog up to 13-12.
