after the flatties went out, i must've been excited or something coz i couldn't get to sleep untill about 1am and then i kept waking up, i think i was scared i was guna sleep in! got about 2 and a half hours sleep because at 3.30am i couldn't get back to sleep... got up and started getting ready and the flatties came home from the city! very strange goin out for a run when they were coming home drunk to bed! haha
anyway once i finally got out the door i arrived at the showgrounds around 5.15am and got on the bus not long after. Took forever to get to the bridge though and didn't arrive till just after 6am. BridgetoBrisbane finally started about 6.50am (for me anyway. Different categories had staggered start times, eg: runners, walkers etc..) i decided to walk a km then run a km (they had markers) so ended up doin 10km in approx 1hr:20m (by my estimated calculations)
The official times will be in the paper on monday because we had timing chips attached to our shoelaces.
at the finish line we got free fruit, tshirt and a sunday paper (i think there was bbq breakfast available too but watermelon and bananas were much better)
So, i hobbled home and jumped in the shower and then hopped back in bed with my tea to relax until it's time to go into town to catch the bus to byron bay:)
