I took part in the world's LARGEST fun run | City2Surf 2023 | RACE VLOG

[@TravelRunner]

Great work, Chris! What an awesome opportunity to travel to Australia and be able to do a race. It’s always a fun experience to race in a different country. Thanks for sharing and I’m looking forward to more videos soon!

[@kerrypowell38]

What a brilliant event! Great to see you back, and hope you all had a fab holiday 😊

[@digthegrig]

Did this race last week for the first time! I loved it❤😊

[@BenNotley]

What a cool race Chris the start looked epic! Never heard of it before. I hope the rest of your trip was brilliant too. 😎🤘

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Thanks Ben. Yes, it's a very popular race and I really enjoyed it. Three weeks in Australia has flown by. Landed back at Heathrow this morning, so mega jet lag now 😄

I was in Sydney till the day before this to celebrate my little boy turning 4 but was back at home in Canberra (about a 4 hour drive away). It looked like a beautiful day and I will have to do it next year because the amount of people would have been special. Cheers.

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Definitely worth the trip again to do it next year 👍

[@BradleySingerRuns]

[@bd11777]

It's the race that got me into running 5 years ago and still is the best race I've ever done

[@HereWeAreRunning]

I can understand why, great event 👍

[@jollyroger1009]

Wow that looks great! Lived in Sydney for a while so some familiar sights there. It would be good weather for it at this time of year.

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Yeah weather was great for running, considering it was winter.

[@marcfenton71]

Well done Chris. Good excuse to come back and better your time again!

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Thanks Marc. Very tempting 🤔 Good to catch up with you.

[@chriscutts9650]

[@philipklink5406]

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Thanks Phil. We really enjoyed our holiday in Australia. It went far too quickly but I managed to get a few runs done. You have a nice place to run 😊

[@philipklink5406]

@@HereWeAreRunning Glad to hear that you had a great trip here. We've had pretty good weather in August considering it's winter. Well done on Heartbreak mate. You nailed it!

[@Mack.Tracks]

Fantastic, Chris!

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Thanks Mark 👍 😀

[@milliejake2]

That looked fun and tough all at the same time Chris😂. Nice to see you again, well done 👏👏

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Thanks Tina. When they said it was a fun run I naturally thought, it would be fairly straightforward but it was actually pretty challenging, however still great fun.

[@Alecmcq]

Chris, I was there as well, and in the green start too. I did 1.18.35: very happy with that!

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Well done Alec 👏

What shoes did you run in? Congratulations! 🎊

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Thank you. Only had room in my luggage to take one pair of shoes to Australia so took the Asics Kayano 30.

[@almostaverageroger]

@@HereWeAreRunning I’m considering running my first marathon in my Kayano 30 as well depending on how my longest long run training tomorrow will go. Congratulations again!

[@cathynewyork7918]

@@almostaverageroger Ishi, I am going to run the 2023 New York City Marathon in the Asics Gel Kayano 30. I know the soles of my feet won't ache in those shoes as has happened to me in past marathons in lighter shoes. Good luck in your first marathon.

[@almostaverageroger]

@@cathynewyork7918 I’ve ran 22k in them and running 32k tomorrow. I’ll check if they’re good enough as my marathon shoe or should I get a pair of Adios Pro 3. Thanks and goodluck to yours too!

[@cathynewyork7918]

@@almostaverageroger Thank you for your reply. I am about to go run 10 miles in that shoe right now - it is 5:50 a.m. here in New York City - time to go out for an early morning run. What marathon are you planning to run?
