Purbrook 5 2008

This site contains  photos taken at the Purbrook 5, June 29th 2008. It was a very pleasant day for running perhaps a little on the warm side. It appears that most road users where considerate apart from the one or two impatient ones that you had to deal with. I recognised many faces from the previous Wednesdays X-country - two races in one week you must be very dedicated (or mad). One thing I've never seen before was the marshals all walking back together behind the last runners, followed by the support vehicles - that brought a smile to my face.

I've gone for a different style of photography to that adopted by the professional photographs. They tend to take the full body shots of the runner's, my style is to get up close to capture the pain on your faces so my shots are usually of the upper body (although I may take the more traditional shots if I have time). Because I don't usually capture your full race number their is no find your image by race number as too many of you would be in the unidentified pile, so I'm afraid you will have to wade through all the thumbnails to find a photo of interest. Note that by clicking on the numbers on the top of the thumbnail pages you will be taken directly to that page, so you can use that to start your search later in the album.

I split the photos into two groups.
