Just as everyone starts to calm down after mid-summer and the end of exams it all starts to get busy with mid-week races. The weather has decided it doesn't know what it's up to at the moment, so "going equipped" is the order of the day for all events - hot, sunscreen, silly wide brimmed hat, waterproofs and rain coat. The car boot is 50% full of stuff I may or may not need at a moments notice... typical.
Last week we had the RPAC Summer 10k, a lovely race which always gets people out and about after the working day with a 7:30pm start, and this week coming on the 15th of July we have the sold out Phoenix 10k down on Hove lawns also at 7:30pm - this time with pic2go free photos...
Anyway - what about those gallery links:
For Wednesdays
Brighton Phoenix 10k at 730pm there is also free image gallery - kindly Sponsored by
The Friday Ad, and powered by Pic2Go - all you need is your runner number (which you may have had in the post by now) and register it on the gallery page here:
http://bit.ly/Phoenix-10k-gallery-2015 .
If you know your friends of family numbers you can also register for those pictures too !
Images will be published as soon as possible direct to your Facebook account - saving you having to visit the gallery and search for your images the next day - they will just be given to you automatically - how fantastic is that ?
(NB - it is only fantastic if your barcode is visible , so don't go crumpling up your number, sticking pins in the barcode, folding it over, or putting it on a race belt (they don't work), or putting a belt over it, or generally mucking about with it - because if the computer can't see the barcode clearly in the image - it ain't going in!)
Also - as a general info and request - we are always looking for sponsors for the Pic2Go service - as I'm sure are runners and competitors ! - so if you are a company that does advertise on facebook and want to try something a bit different that gets hundreds of thousands, if not millions of impressions and exposure for your brand - then please get in touch at
