Thrilling sprint finish at record-breaking 2011 City2Surf! 

This year a record 85,000 entered the race, cementing the City2Surf’s place as the world’s largest run.

In one of the most exciting finishes ever in the City2Surf, Liam Adams from Victoria has beaten one of the race favourites, Michael Shelley by just two seconds

Jess Trengove from South Australia was the women’s champion, edging out Emily Brichacek from ACT.

Elite wheelchair athlete Kurt Fearnley took out the top spot among the men's elite wheelchair athletes with a time of 38 minutes and three seconds. Kurt says; “it’s a challenging and technical course, but I love it! The rain makes it hard, especially on the hills. I can’t wait to come back next year on a dry course and see how fast i can really go.” Women’s champion of the elite wheelchair start was Christie Dawes from Merewether, New South Wales who completed the course in a time of 47 minutes and 35 seconds.
