| The atmosphere at Arundel Castle |
What a Bank Holiday weekend and what great weather! We were shooting on Saturday at the REP Adur 5km Fin Swim and Sunday we were at the Arundel 10k. At both events, thanks to the organisers we were able to provide the participants with free photos.
The swimmers enjoyed another well organised race by Mick and team at Raw Energy Pursuits and the addition of the tide flowing with the swimmers made for some excellent swim times along the River Adur. Check out the gallery here - https://sspimg.com/2017-Adur5kmSwim-Gallery
The Arundel 10k features a route that takes the runners around and through parts of Arundel Castle and offers spectacular views. The race is organised by the Arundel Scouts and is part of the Arundel Festival which includes Medieval re-enactment within the Castle grounds, Dragon Boat Racing and Super Car Dream rides. Well worth a visit in 2018! You can see the gallery here - https://sspimg.com/2017-Arundel10k-Gallery

Have a lovely weekend, keep running.
