Sydney Marathon Candidate Race and my 10th marathon

My 10th Marathon was at @sydney_marathon on 17th September on an extremely hot day that certainly tested many.
In excess of 17,000 runners lined up to help try and have Sydney become a candidate for the @wmmajors along with @nycmarathon @tokyomarathon @bostonmarathon @chimarathon @londonmarathon and @berlinmarathon It would be amazing to see runners from around the world run across the Sydney Harbour Bridge and finish at the famous Sydney Opera House.
Whilst the current course is better improvements do need to be made so that runners are not running up Mrs Macquarie Chair at 40km.
This race wasn’t ever going to be a PB and I knew what I was getting myself into due to limited specific training and an injury to my left ankle that is still healing the plan was run/walk but by the time I got to Circular Quay the heat was coming on and I ended up walking the rest. Still I got it done. Now to focus on @athleticsnsw Summer Track season.
