Passage

The City to Surf

I. Tapescript

In Sydney there is a special long-distance running race called the City to Surf. The race takes place on the second Sunday in August every year. More than 23,000 people run in the race.

The race is 14 kilometers long. It starts in the center of the city and finishes at a surf beach called Bondi. That is why it's called the City to Surf.

All kinds of people run in the City to Surf. Some people take their small children in strollers. Other people take their dogs on the lead.

Blind people and people in wheelchairs 7 also take part in the race. Old people take part in the race too. In 1981 the oldest runner was an 81-year-old man and his sister Linda, 76, was the last runner to finish.

At the end of the race an official 8 writes down the runners names and running times. The newspaper prints the names and running times of the competitors 9 a few days later.

In 1981 the first runner took just 40 minutes to run the race. The last runner took two and a half hours.

The first man and the first woman to cross the finishing line each received atrophy 10 and a free trip to San Francisco in the United 11 States. There they ran in another long-distance race.
