Man and Womanly

Vanessa and I both set some PBs today. I drove closer to the city and on more tolls roads than I've ever done in a single trip. Vanessa ran 10kms along the Manly coast and up into the hills at a cracking pace. Okay, obviously her achievement was a little more impressive.

In the crowd, waiting to go. Obviously the jumper went on sometime between sunrise and the start of the race.

Then I went and sat in a cafe with a large coffee and watched the sunrise until she got back.

Rounding the final bend... Hey, that's where I drank my coffee!

And she won (a medal!) And much pinkness. I was extremely proud, and she said I did a good job driving as well.

Today was always going to be the best day of the year to see a sunrise.
