Since I missed out on the last race. Plus I wanted to remember this one. Yes I know the giant mitts might be overkill but they were warm :)

Thanks Abi. I usually look like a dork in my pics so I thought I should snag this one

Looking good there Decker. And your time showing too, bonus.

Rather toasty fingers than droppy-off ones 😀

What a great pic! I'm disappointed you weren't wearing your pro running gloves though 😁. Retired, are they?

Thanks Sask. It was too cold for the pro gloves, so I busted out the big guns :)

Thank you yes, it was an option they offered so I figured, why not?

The good photos are definitely worth buying. Like you say, they don't come along very often. Congrats!

Haha I will likely just keep it somewhere for me to see when I’m having a bad day :)

And it's a great one 😀 I'm loving all these happy running photos. I wish we could put them all in one thread! Gahhh health unlocked, spoiling our photo fun.

Oh a photo gallery feature would be great to see everyone together! Maybe we can suggest it to them?

Thanks Ali. They had the badges as an option so I added it as a memory jogger for me later on :)

I splurged on a print too, from my first race, in September. It’s something I shall never forget, and it’s nice to have a record of it on the wall. If you’re like me, and usually behind the camera, it’s rare to have a photo anyway (at my age selfies look hideous!). So I say good for,you. And you look splendid x

Thanks Flick. Yes it is something to remember the moment by. My family was not there so this is the only actual running pic I have :)

Great photo and time - looks chilly over there?

DeckerUltramarathon in reply toMadDave

Thanks Dave, at the outset it was around -5. Was a bit windy too as we got close to the end near Lake Ontario. Didn’t really feel it until the end.:)

That's a brilliant photo Decker! Looks like you were enjoying the event too. Nice one.

Thanks RFD. Yes I think this was towards the end when I had a bit of a sprint left and the finish was in sight :)

in reply toDecker

Ah yes, the finish always seems to make my legs go faster and uplift my spirit too! Looking good!

yep - Don't know where the energy comes from, but we all had it in the last 500m :)

Brilliant! 😁
