Every year
this run goes past our area, so I thought I'd pop out and take some photos. It is a pretty cool run because it is only 5km, yet each year I haven't run it as it fills up so fast, and this year I was totally injured, broken and depressed that I couldn't run. One of the funniest things of these inner city runs is how car drivers can't/don't understand that it happens every year on the same day. No matter how much advertising, promotion and notification people in cars are still so self obsessed that they get angry, swear at police and drive like maniacs around back streets. Seriously, people in cars you all need to just calm down, maybe you'd be less angry if you went for a run.... just an idea.

No, these guys weren't running..... I hope. |

First man coming through, second just in the background. |
|
Not far from the last corner to the finish line, there is no catching him now. |
|
First woman, powering on. |
|
Second woman was actually quite a way behind. |
|
The odd pop of colour to show how hard some are working. |
|
The colours of the field are always fun, even when the run shirt is a navy blue people bring out some multicolours. |
|
Patriotic dog caused some problems. |
|
Someone looks angry that dad didn't try harder. |
|
People tease me about my flouro colours, but they are everywhere. |
|
A change of perspective. Shows early spring blooming. |
|
This gives an idea of the number of runners. |
|
When running and people clap, it is great to clap back. All the positive support out there is a real driver to the finish line! |
|
But let's face it, it is all about having some fun. Right Ron |
|
Gary keeping it real for WITC as he powers home. |

Just to prove it was early spring here are some blossoms, and some rain clouds coming in behind :) |
