The Bay Run

Great little asset in Sydney, my family and I come here every year in February for the Cystic Fibrosis charity fun run and it's a great location for the event.

It is a shame though that many of the locals on their morning walk/jog/cycle can't seem to share it with us this one day a year. With hundreds of people participating, the track is quite packed with not much room to budge for anyone. And so, much of the local population deem it appropriate to shout obscene things at small children, yelling at them to get out of the way, even pushing and shoving, shoulder charging young women out of the way. One cyclist ploughed right into a family at shocking speed. We're talking about an event where families of people with a life-threatening disorder are walking to raise money for charity. There was even a one-legged guy running the track, an absolute inspiration. Yet still this selfish, entitled and downright disgraceful behaviour from the locals persists every year.

1 day a year.

A truly shameful snapshot of our Sydney community.
