19012. That's my number for City to Surf, which arrived in the post yesterday.
That confirms that I'm in Group B as I hoped for. What it also means is that there were 11 people even more eager than me to enter on that first day (Group B starts at 19001).
I also learned that Group A has been split into two this year (presumably to make it safer for those who sprint start to get through the narrowed roads around the Cross City Tunnel roadworks). Group A1 is for runners who completed last year in 75 mins or less, group A2 in 100 mins or less. Kind of (shockingly) puts my target time of 75 minutes into perspective. I'd hate to be the one in next years race starting in A1 being trampled by the masses of A2!
Anyway, only 23 days to go. I want to do an extra long run on Sunday - maybe in the region of 15km. I've felt strong on my long runs in the second half, after taking most of the first half to warm up. I wonder if I can warm up properly and quicker how much longer that 'strong' feeling will last?

It seems like everyone else is getting their C2S numbers except me - I'm starting to feel a little left out. Hope mine comes soon. Will be ordering a Garmin 301 shortly - my tax refund came through -yay!!!!
