Perfect weather for 1300 souls who raced along Cliff Drive in the 5K and 8K Cliffhanger 2011 a benefit for Northeast Neighbor to Neighbor and Gladstone School. You can see all of the images I shot here: http://gallery.me.com/dremley#100856&bgcolor=black&view=grid
Above the start of the Elite Runners Race beginning at 8am.... below, all ages participated from 5 to 85....
The Drive looked beautiful and the folks were impressed. Parks and Recreation did a great job of getting it ready....
Above and below, the crowd for the second race which began at 9am.
Above and below, the start of the second race.... walkers and runners together....
Young critters.... including, in the carriage, Simon Henggeler, born three weeks ago, pushed by his Mom Jen.....
Some participants had four legs... all shots taken with the Nikon D3 and either the 24-70mm lens or 70 to 300mm lens. ASA 1000 to get a high shutter speed ...usually 250th or 500th... to stop action.... F stops varied... usually around F8.
I am terrifically impressed by those who can smile on the way back.....
After the race participants headed to Gladstone School for pancakes.... eating in the gym.
Above, Pam and Malenda enjoy their reward!!!
