well there should have been an induction/initiation but seeing as Wheabs didn't give us the heads up it's too late now ;) welcome to Fetch though :)

hi Bree, nice to meet you on Sunday :) thanks for asking about the photos . . by all means help yourself and save away! if you'd like a high res image let me know . .

I intend to sell the high res images from next year onwards, just enough to cover costs and help me upgrade equipment . . but for the time being there's no charge :)

after all I'm a runner with a camera who likes taking photos, not a business :)

Thanks for all the photos everybody - I've just been shrieking with laughter at some of mine, I'm so knock-kneed it's a wonder I can run 2 miles, let alone 26! But the most remarkable thing is, I've never seen so many race pics of me actually SMILING! Just goes to show what a brilliant day it was :-)

AntBliss - the great dollop
Uniqua, of the 27 on the SSP website, which of the four showing you completely off the ground make you look like you're lumbering ? including the ones of you smiling, whilst off the ground ? :-)
Here's two for starters :-P

Definitely no lumbering there!

I'm very impressed that there are any photos of me with both feet off the ground - OK it was in the final straight, but still!
