Fire Fighters 10 Mile Road Race 2012 Runners

I would first like to say Congratulations to everyone that ran the 10 mile road race, it was warm out and all of you slugged it out to the finish. I was at various points along the route and I thoroughly enjoyed it, motivating is my specialty. I started out at the start line before the race and snapped a few of you runners warming up.

The Kenyans were back in town for the occasion.
Everyone is so excited for the race to start, can't you just feel the excitement.
The group of runners in the yellow are the Fresh Air 10 mile training group, they all had the same shirt on, and boy did they stand out.

There were so many people out there to cheer for along the route and when they arrived at Intercity at the beginning of the race everyone was so excited, you could feel the excitement. 

This next pic is of the Kenyan on the far side of the road on his way back to the finish and the people on the nearest side of the road are just on their way to the half way point.

Here are friends of mine Stephanie and Carol, flashing their medals, I am so happy for them. It was their first time running.

And of coarse what is a race without my friend Kathy (on the left) she will smile throughout a race no matter what torture it may be.

My friends Carol and Lynda, wow in all three pictures is Carol, she's so happy.

Congratulations on such a great day, so many people of all running abilities coming together to share this race.

After the race they had an awards ceremony with trophies, money and prizes. What an all round great day!
