Yesterday I ran the Sydney 10Km bridge run, which has to be one of the most spectacular courses to run in the world, running across the harbour bridge then up to Hyde park, down to Mrs Macquaries chair and then looping back to Hyde park and down the hill to finish in front of the Opera House. I managed a time of 51:15 which put me in a provisional place of 994th, how do I know that? Well Telstra have some clever technology that, once registered, sent me an SMS within 5 minutes of crossing the line which had my race time and placing so far, but with 9000 odd people behind me there was a chance that someone beat my time. Nice use of SMS technology I think.
