Richmond 13.1, Brentwood Half, and F3 Half now live - B2TT and PP Water of Life almost ready 2014

Hiya,
It's been another big weekend for Running and all things muddy, if this keeps up all the way to the London Marathon there's going to have been a lot of running miles put in before April the 13th.

This weekends galleries are listed below along with their status so far we have cataloged over 100,000 images (yes it's a manual process) and aim to have the last ones done around lunchtime tomorrow - we have the full team in the office so it should be swift, Facebook and twitter @uksportphoto updates will follow just as soon as the last two are online.

This weekend compared to the same weekends last year were quite a bit different - at Brentwood we didn't have a snow blizzard warning, nor snow and ice during the race, at Richmond we had about 3 times as many runners, and no floods or ice on the towpaths, over at The Water of Life we had heavy Hail storms, when last year it was flooded off, and at Back to the Trenches the slide had been made very slidey and there were no laps. At least the F3 Events Dorney Lake half marathon had only a little wind, and almost perfect running conditions on the Saturday.

All go at the Brentwood Half Start

Little Iron Man made the fun run

Strong finishing in the fun run

Wonder woman put in an appearance at Brentwood

Real chains - very heavy

Sponsored start

Running Scared at Dorney 


Double hellos

The Band played on at Brentwood

and over there, you'll see the lake

Mobot

Y oh Y oh Y

Why ?!

Jump the fire

Jump the fire, this time with feeling

The start at the Water of Life

Show your best side for the half at Richmond

Victory at the finish

Two tyred

Far too tired

perhaps overkill on the dipping under the logs

Flying over the fire jump

There's something on my nose !!

afterwards it all seemed so innocent

high-5 starting

victory at the end of Richmond

Make the finish count

Fetch me a chinese doctor !

Perfect finishing victory arms

Look into the lens, not around the lens, into the lens...

Taxi to the Thames towpath please, yes, near old deer park

spot on pacing from the Xempo team

That Richmond bridge shot

Teasing Tony because he was working and not training for the 7Oaks tri...

Respect for this chap - all the way round, and his umbrella helped at the end in the Hail !
So, check out the galleries, we have a full team in today wednesday to finish off B2TT and Water of Life, so they will all be up as soon as possible.

Well done to everyone at the weekend, especially the less frequent runners who managed to make it around the half marathon courses, or the 10k's - it's not easy going - we hope we see you out and about soon ?

Right, until next time, enjoy the galleries, and please remember to order them before they are archived.
Anthony
