Hinckley Half Marathon Photos - Sunday 11 May 2003

 

 

Having erected the marquee, nine of our members look bright eyed and bushy tailed before the start.

Emma shows most of the pack a clean pair of heels at 4 miles. She maintained this pace despite a knee injury and finished in an excellent 'second place lady'!
Karen and Jo enjoy themselves and even manage a wave for their supporters. Matt has an accident with his number and has to carry it.
Nick briefly turns on his afterburner to fool the lensman!
Andy marches in at 1:23:55, a time that some of us can only dream of running flat out.
"Now, what time is it when the big hand is on the......." Nigel clocks up a very creditable 1:43:35.
Francis congratulates himself with 1:43:41.




 

 

 


For some, the main event of the day was the barbeque, where runners, friends, family (and Woody the dog) can relax in the afternoon sunshine.

Finally, in an effort to find his knife and fork, Francis checks to make sure we don't throw away anything that can be recycled.

"Victory is mine"
sayeth the chairman!
