All of us that run road races know that it is very, very rare to get a race picture where you don't look terrible. I have run more than 100 races and I can count on one hand how many half-way decent pictures I have had taken of me. So what a surprise when I went to look at the pictures from the Boston Prep Derry 16 miler and found not just one, but a bunch of good pictures. Not only that, but the pictures were free to download. Total score!! I am so impressed that I will give the photographers, Nuvision Action Image a shoutout.
But of course, they can't all be winners. There were some pretty funny bad pics in there too. Like this one of me halfway up a killer hill. Don't I look happy?
What is your favorite race picture? How about the worst picture?

ReplyDeleteI love my pics from the NFEC 50K and the NYCM! My funniest (worst) pic is me with a clown running behind me at a 5K!
