	Heh...at least you don't look like you are walking a half marathon (I'm only posting this link 'cause Trishie was brave enough to post hers, first). You have a few cute ones there, really! I can't wait for the day when my race photos don't make me wanna hurl. k

	I blame the weather. Had it been 5-10 degrees colder, I could have worn my supercute new Nike long sleeved half zip. I can't get over how HUGE my legs are. I mean, I know it's muscle, yada yada, but good god.

	trishierunner - You looked like you pause there for a second to stop your watch prior to running over the finish line. zoom-zoom - You outfit makes you look like a gangster-ette.

There are some really cute ones in there! Mine are always much worse I look like I'm walking, and about to vomit (I did neither in that race). That's not even close to my worst running picture though.

I have one that I cannot find anymore, where it was a blizzard of sleet/snow in the end of April. I look absolutely miserable, and it appears as though I am flipping off the camera with both hands, although that was not my intention. If I ever find it, I'm starting a "Worst running pictures" thread here.

	Now why is it everyone always seems to get so many pictures? Here are mine LVM Steamtown Now I'm all wet due to running through the hoses and you can see how loose my skin is on my stomach

	Some of those came out real good. And at least they're nice images. Marathonfoto makes them super-low resolution so you can't just download them (and expect to see anything clearly).

I'll let you guys find those not bad at all!! I even saw you catching air in one of the shots! I never got one from the RnR because I looked half dead or too far away.
