For the Jet Lag.

 Up at 6am, had breakfast and went for a walk around Darling Harbour.  Met up with Rob and the meet and train group in the Domain for a 6K Fartlek session.  A good tough run and I cooled down with a 2 mile run back to my hotel via Darling Harbour.   My IT band is still a bit tight so i'll probably take it easy tomorrow.

Hitting the ground running!

I arrived in Sydney at 09:00am local time after 39 hrs of travelling via london and Kuala Lumpar. Check in at my hotel was not until 2pm so rather than hanging around I went for a walking tour of the surrounding area and met up with a friend from back home 'Rob Costello'. Rob was planning a lunchtime run so I decided to join him and shortly after checking into my hotel we were running under the Sydney Harbour Bridge, around the Opera House and through the Domain / Botanic Gardens before returning to my hotel 6 miles later.
Tomorrow i'll be joining a meet and train group for an interval session and might even be racing a 5K on Wednesday but will take it easy on both days.
