Here are some photos taken at Bondi Beach on 13th August 2006. About 60,000 people lined up for the event which started at 9:30am.
Whilst the serious runners were up the front (and mainly men) the "fun run" was in the middle with lots of costumes, and many runners making phone calls as they jogged along. In this age of technology, mobile phones, tiny headphones and digital cameras were commonplace.
