There's a panoramic photo doing the rounds of the start of the 10km, apparently it's so big you can zoom in and see if you're in it. If I can find the link again will post

the families are always wonderful! Infact, i think without the families cheering us and providing us with food, im not sure how people get to the end!

DS and I were just a few metres after the half way turn on beach road and cheered everyone, right along til 10.30 when just the last few stragglers were doing their best. We had a fab time as usual. Glad to know that the clapping and cheering is appreciated because sometimes runners are so in the zone they must not hear and we always worry that we are distracting them. Well done to everyone. See you next year.
