So, being injured for 8 weeks means that I couldn't train to run the last race I had planned for the year, so now I will need to plan something else..... Instead I was able to take some photos and run the last 5km with a friend doing his first marathon. Even just pacing someone makes you feel part of the marathon, I love the energy and the support around the track is amazing.

A decent 10km time for most people, and there is a bunch of lads who have done 15km and have another 27km to run. Scary |
|
It was a bit cold for this guy, needed gloves and beanie! |

The first of our WITC runners, well done Mark |
|
Running has great colours now, and women's tights have the best patterns! |
|
I have heard bananas are good for cramps.... |
|
get him Alan! Eat him before he beats you to the finish line |
|
Plus an extra WITC member |
|
high 10? 10 to go? Either way she was cruising. |
|
I love how photos can tell you the joy of something, or not. |
|
Someone spotted me, go Dan go! |
|
It is nice when the runners clap the supporters back. :D |
|
I am not sure the choice of rabbits is the best. Maybe the road runner would have been better |
|

there are no limits to exercise, none. |

The Batman villian, "The Scribbler" |

International and bright. |
|
This guy always makes me feel over dressed. |
|
gravity vs hair, who will win |
|
maybe there is too much wind here.... |

The WITC trio cruising |
|
I love how photos of people running can sometimes make it look like they are salsa dancing |

I'd love to know the stat on "fives" given today |
|
For some the challenge of a simple marathon really isn't enough, but how does he get a drink and a banana? |
|
He isn't having a heart attack, but reaching for a low five. |
|
Charge! |

Batman utility belts are always popular, though I am not sure Aviators are fun to run in. |
