It’s City2Surf Time Again!

ByJarrat Wood

The 9th of August is rapidly approaching and here is a re-post of my tips to get you through each section of the City2Surf. Here are some of the do’s and don’ts of the world’s most popular fun run and a little bit of my story:

I first competed in the City2Surf when I was 16. I was fortunate to enough to be sponsored by the Department of Sport and Recreation and it was quite the adventure travelling to Sydney for the first time by plane from Gunnedah.

That year I made a lot of mistakes but still managed a great time of 51mins 15secs which was aided by having the luxury of a preferred start position. The race record is 40mins 3secs set by Steve Moneghetti in 1991 (see picture above). Since then I have run the race a further 5-6 times with all times under 60mins. I have to say that running under 60mins from the back of the pack is probably tougher than a 51min from the preferred start line! It’s not easy running on the gutter for 14km to avoid the crowds and prams. That said, if you know a few tricks you can save yourself a lot of time and energy. Here is my breakdown of how to run a strong City2Surf time:
