Now most of you think that running a marathon is all about the sweat, pain and just more pain … well not really … sometimes it’s all about the cameras!! 😀
Just to help you see the lighter side and be encouraged to get out there, here’s a few more pics of us in action on course – thanks to the photographers at the GC marathon this year (with a little bit of editing work from us).
All smiles at around the 30km mark – He’s so happy he’s levitating 😉
The triage of classic fist pumps – soaking in the finishing chute glory
My look of pained determination
Sometimes they catch you at your most flattering .. hammy and glute cramps just over the finish line – ouch!
The above image goes well with this MUST WATCH video footage from the Marathon-Photos site (at bottom right hand side). Watch, turn up the volume on the player and listen out for the D’munchkin grunts (before and after the finish line). It cracks me up every time. 😀
And finally… the crowd support from Team SCU for Craig as he enters the finishing chute in style! Thanks to Jesse Perkins for filming using my iphone.
So whether you are thinking of running the 2km, 5.7km, 10km, half marathon or full marathon next year, make sure you remember to draw in the atmosphere and smile for the cameras!! 😀 Makes for some great memories.
