had already done this event years ago when she was living in Sydney. It was a good opportunity for me to catch up one she already had done on the 5km different event list app. It was a pretty big event with over 500 people which is not surprising for the inner west area of Sydney. Being a pretty flat course on mostly concrete path makes it fast and even more popular too. I pushed to the front at the start to try and stay ahead of the main pack as I had a feeling it might get pretty congested as the faster people starter to lap the slower runners on the second lap. It was a good idea as I had no issues, but it did get tight at times when there were 3 sets of traffic on the one path. The temperature was coolish after few hot days in Sydney but still pretty humid when I started running, by the end I was sweating as much as back home in sub-tropical Queensland.GreenWay parkrun, New South Wales, Australia.
