The Manchester 10K Run – 90 Years Old and 500m to go.

Originally uploaded by sportpictures

Well it was a warm, cloudy and sunny at times Sunday morning and the Manchester BUPA 10K race was happening again. My favourite bit of going out and shooting this race is to see the smile on the face of the 90 year old lady that does the course with her two helpers from the hospice. The funny thing for me is that there are more able bodied competitors that are actually behind this lady.

Its the Manchester 10K race tomorrow and at this present moment I am definitely going to be going and doing a little bit of photography. Although I do like the pictures that show the elite athletes bounding towards the finish line – I also like to record the people that have definitely pushed themselves to the limit and those that push the limit on costume sensibility.

If you are running then all the best, and here’s to your best times. Look out for me I will be near the finishing line after the bridge over the Mancunian Way on the end of the central reservation if they will allow me, but before the bridge and the ever so high Beecham Tower.
