IN CASE YOU DIDN’T KNOW: It might only be Wednesday, but that hasn’t stopped one Sydney man from spending the majority of lunch today with friends talking about Sunday’s City2Surf.
“So, what are you guys up to this weekend?” asked Nathan Brampton, in the desperate hope his friends would ask him the same question.
“I have to be up really early on Sunday morning for the City2Surf.”
Brampton is among the 80,000 runners expected to take part in the 14-kilometre fun run from the City to Bondi.
“Yeah I haven’t much trained at all this year,” he told his friends.
“But 14k’s is no walk in the park, hahah.”
It’s understood the 28 year old Paddington man mentioned the City2Surf at least 8 times during lunch.
“We tried to talk about other stuff,” says his friend Holly McGill.
“But he kept on bringing the conversation back to the race. At one stage he even got up from his chair to show us his stretching regime.”
Brampton says he plans to hit the phone hard tonight, calling and texting as many people as possible about the race.
