BUPA Great North Run in pictures.
The Great North Run!
The world's biggest half marathon took place last Sun from Spital Tongues in Newcastle to South Shields. 13.2 miles (21.09km) run with some part of d course hills over 60m above sea level.
I couldn't run cos 1. I got to hear about it late and 2. It'd have been disastrous, cant even do a 30min stretch run talk less of a 2hr(approx time) run. But I did what could do and enjoy doing, captured d day paper through d lens of Fuji Finefilm 6500 and a Sony Cybershot camera, at least till i ran out of batteries.
About 40,000 people running to raise funds and awareness for their favoured charity/cause.It was a great experience and I've made up my mind to run next year.
Feast on d pics and you'd have a vague idea of how d event went.
Pro-women start
Pro-men and all others. Let the race begin...
Interesting line up of runners
Blue Brothers (NYPD) / Shrek & Kids
Sunflower&bees / William Wilberforce Foundation(slavery abolition)
Cant explain him/her and this glass of stout too...
Nurse Betty running for sick kids / Race against breast cancer
Causes/Charities
Breast Cancer
Cardiac Risk in d Young and others
Parachutes and aircrafts' colour display
I can go on and on... Took over 100 pics till my batteries ran out.
Cheers.
