I can't believe you are racing with your sunglasses on your head...oh wait that is just the color-form add-in.
Run like you are on fire!

5K goal 24:00 or less (PR 24:34)
10K goal 50:00 or less (PR 52:45)
HM goal 1:55:00 or less (PR 2:03:02)
Marathon Goal...Less than my PR (PR 4:33:23)

Nice form chicka!
Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson



The precision is amazing. The foot placement, distance off the ground. Angle & placement of fingers on the left hand. What is that in your right hand - in both pictures? Exact point of view. Lighting is a little bit off but basically from behind/right. It's like one of those "spot the differences" kids games!

Ha...I wanted to put them on my face, but the race started before the sun came up and they were soaked with condensation once the sun did come up, so I gave up trying to get them dry enough to see out of. They actually stayed up there pretty well.

i've never had matching photos like that, but did get bib #188 in my last two races..one of which was a PR..maybe i need to start timing my registration just right to get 188...

I was going through race pictures once and the site had some trouble loading the top half of a photo - but I thought, wow, that person runs exactly the same way that I do. I forgot that I had worn new racing flats that day and was expecting white shoes instead of blue shoes, so it didn't even occur to me that it was me until I refreshed the page and saw that it was in fact me. I've never had photos that close before, though.

Very nifty!

That's hilarious Zoomie!

My race pictures all have one thing in common: AWFUL-NESS (Yes, that's a word... in my world Yes )

I've never ordered any of my race pics, if that says anything...I actually like that one from the July race, but the race sucked and back in college that photog. ruined a print of mine that was showing in his gallery (ie the gallery that mommy and daddy bought him that is now no more)...no way was I going to pay for his work.

Don't have any matching ones, but I've got one that looks like I'm being shot in the back by a sniper, right as I cross the finish line...

On your remastery mastery of running form Zoomie... What a hoot! That's remarkable!

On this post and the lady that looks like she just took her dog for a walk at a race finish line...
BEOTCH! Big grin

Funny thing about that pic; everybody asks "what's up with the woman standing there?"

Well, she only did the 1-mile fun run about an hour previously... Big grin (note the difference in the race numbers too)

Honestly I don't even remember her standing there at the line, but that picture is when my HR was at the highest I've ever seen....According to that math equation (220-age) my max should be 190bpm, but the peak at that race (5 miler) was 197... Shocked

By the way Zoom-Zoom, sorry for hijacking the thread! Undecided

*************************************************

Now I'm REALLY sorry for hijacking the thread but I just was looking at who #169 was and he has a chip time of 39:06, while mine was 39:30....WTF??? I finished ahead of him in the pic....Any more experienced person want to explain that one to me? Surprised
