THOUSANDS OF people will be pounding<br />
the pavements and roads at the annual<br />
City2Surf on Sunday.<br />
It’s Christchurch’s iconic event, which<br />
The Star has put on for decades.<br />
This year it will be the 45th time the event has been held. It<br />
used to go from the Square out to QE II, but a certain event on<br />
February 22, 2011, changed all of that.<br />
It now goes from Centennial Park and Hansen Park to<br />
Ferrymead.<br />
Each year there is a buzz as thousands gather in the parks<br />
for the challenge that lies ahead – whether it be going as fast<br />
as you can, or simply completing the journey for personal<br />
satisfaction.<br />
On page 11 today, we talk to some of the people taking part.<br />
