Several of our families ran in the event, and returned with personal best times. Congratulations!
City to Surf
The City2Surf[1] is a road running event held annually in Sydney on the second Sunday in August, covering a 14 kilometre course. Many clients of IC Sports Therapies are participating in this year’s City2surf event on August 9th, and we’d like to remind them – please book your pre- and post-event treatment sessions early, while there are still openings available. Phone 9477-3103 today, or book during your next visit to the clinic.
The Sydney City2Surf event is a “fun run” as well as a race, attracting both competitive runners and community participants who can choose to run or to walk. The event was first run on 5 September 1971, and on the event’s 40th anniversary, a record 80,000 participants ran, making it the largest run of its kind in the world.
The course record is 40:03, set by Steve Moneghetti in 1991. The women’s record is 45:08 minutes, set by Susie Power in 2001[1].
