On Friday 27 March Denise, Grandchildren Daneka and Shayla and I went to Christchurch for the weekend to catch up with Nadine and Meika. While there I discovered that the annual City2Surf event was on. I decided to register on Saturday for the Sunday morning walk.
I parked in the Farmer's building just after 8am and walked to Cathedral Square for the start. 12,500 people ran, walked or skated. We all started at 9am and the congestion was amazing. It took about 1km before we were spread out. We followed the Avon River to QE 11 Park. When we got to the 6km mark we merged with the start of the 6km race. Again it was very congested.
I reached the finish in 1:41:09 but was slowed down by the congestion.
