The Sun Run, a 10K fun run and Vancouver’s largest annual running race with 53,000 participants this year, kicked off at 9am just up the road from our apartment block. The fitness centre across the road thought it would be a great promotional tool to set up an aerobics class out on the street… complete with pumping tunes and instructor with microphone: “when your heart rate rises, your life goes wheee!”, “Vancouver, you make us proud”, and my favourite “when you say hello to us, you’re saying that you have energy, you have strength!”. They decided to start this around 7.30am, an hour and a half in advance of the race! Wankers!

Since I’d been woken up anyway, I got up and myself and Anna went out to shoot some photos.
