Watford 10k now live


The 2011 Watford 10k is now live and online here:
http://gallery.sussexsportphotography.com/a.tlx?k=srezgg0


The event website and results are here: http://www.watford10k.org.uk/?page_id=26

Over 15,000 images are now live on the gallery for you to search through and order from this years race. All you have to do is search by your race number to find your photos.
Unfortunately quite a few had only used two safety pins, so there were quite a few flappy numbers which were impossible for us to read - so to find those pictures simply search on "000".

If you want to see some other pictures from the day, search on "misc" and also "prize".

As ever it was a very well run and organised event, with limited entries available on the day this year, together with the perfect sunny weather for running lead to an excellent turnout.

Important job #456 - Getting the prizes ready

Money raised from the event directly helps people like Brian who now has a mobility scooter
A great turnout for the Fun Runs

strong concentration along the dappled shady route

Nick Shasha won in 33:12

One to watch for later years to come

The Riverside gym are also race sponsors
Sandra Reynolds won the womens race in 41:58, and prizes were presented by the Chairman of Watford Mencap.
Next weekend includes the Ranelagh Richmond Half Marathon, The Marlow 5 and the Horsham 10k, and I'm just about to finish off the Steyning Triathlon Free Downloads tomorrow morning - taking it to over 40,000 images put online from this weekend. Each one carefully checked and catalogued by human hand. Phew !!

If you are at a loose end this wednesday evening (4th of May) - get yourself over to the littlehampton beach run - at 7:30pm for a 5 mile run : http://www.arunners.co.uk/page3.html
A whole £5 for entries on the day, so get down there, and hope for low tide...

Until next time, May the 4th be with you.
Anthony

Reigate YMCA and Three Forts races now live

A busy weekend kick started with the Royal 5k (see previous blog) was followed up with the Reigate YMCA fun runs, the Three Forts Marathon and Half Marathon, as well as the Steyning Triathlon and the Watford 10k.

So here are the direct links for the first two events that have made it onto the gallery:

On a weekend of near perfect weather for the wedding, the fun runs and the marathons it was certainly better than this time last year when it was gale force gusting wind and constant rain !

 It's always a great pleasure to be part of these well run events and to do our bit to help out. Many thanks to the organisers for inviting us back again at the YMCA races for the third year and for our first year at the Three Forts Challenge, if the weather is the same I'm looking forwards to being back next year !

Just a hand full of pictures here for the blog, we've got about 26,000 more images to sort out from the remaining events from the weekend, so best get on with them. Enjoy the galleries and see you out and about soon.
