Cliffhanger 2012
A thousand participants have placed the 2012 Cliffhanger 5K 8K in the record book and raised money for worthy causes at the same time. The race was held today along Cliff Drive in Historic Northeast. Above, the start of the Elite Division at 8am...
Above, the Brother's Dicus... Kent, on the left, is President of the Northeast Kansas City Historical Society and Steve is just a normal guy :)
Shots of the second race which began at 9am. Below foreground, a rare sight, two Baldridges in the wild... their wife/mom Mel was assistant race director.
Above, famous local publisher, Mr. Bushnell... who ran in the second race... although I had to line him up with a tree to detect movement.
Four-footed friends were welcome as were wee-ones in strollers.
This was the 27th Annual Race put on by the KC Trak Club... it benefits Northeast Neighbor to Neighbor, Special Olympics, and Gladstone School.
Afterward, Chris Cakes provided the grub. Hyper was granted special dispensation to partake.
Flipping cakes was entertaining..... below man is HUNGRY.
Above, one of the youngest Audrey Smith, age 10,... she was blazing fast. Below, world-renowned, local columnist from the STAR.
Great weather and a clean, beautiful course.
Another shot of the beginning of the second race.

Fall, Cliff Drive
Cliff Drive is unusually colorful this year. Due to the drought most all the trees are changing at the same time. Above is a 7-minute video of the Drive moving from West to East, from the Paseo Gateway to the Elmwood entrance. Above and below are shots of North Terrace Lake.

Running the Drive: Cliffhanger 2011
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!!!
