The Beachy Head 2016 gallery is now live with both the Marathon and 10k race photos here
http://bit.ly/Beachy-Head-Marathon-Gallery-2016
Taken from over 9 locations around the course the team took almost 100,000 images on Saturday in various weather conditions from 7:45am to 6:38pm when the last photo was taken.

| No, this was not taken from a drone ! - The start comes up a rather steep hill quite quickly ! |
The team here has been busy over the past days cataloguing all the images so you can find your photos super quick - we hope it helps you get your orders completed all the faster and saves you an impossible amount of time trying to find yours !
In other news - we're going through a massive reworking of our gallery, website and back office processes for 2017 so look out for the changes coming in the months ahead - we hope you enjoy them, we know you will benefit from them. You can take a sneak preview of the backed up 2016 gallery
here.
