There are times when I participate in races...
this time just happened to be in Galway that day...too late to be registered and anyway horrible weather...
So I enjoyed it from outside...with my camera and testing (mostly unsuccessfully ;( ) the new lens (and loosing the lens cover...so if you see me with a Nikon lens and a Canon lens cover it is because it was already a big success to find a photography shop in Galway open on Sunday morning! :) )
In 5 days time there will be the Ing Night Marathon in Luxembourg. I had not registered this year as I wanted to do the 20 km in Brussels.
Well, the point is that I will not go to Brussels neither (and it was difficult today to receive at work the complete package for the Brussels race - chip, t-shirt, etc - and knowing that it will remain unused...first race in which I registered and I will not go...:( )..
So I will be the photographer at the Ing! ;)
Of course, participating is something,...being outside is another..
But still...
I will enjoy the spirit of the race...the same spirit that I enjoyed that day in Galway..
...The joy to be between the first...
...and the regret of not being first
The tiredness at the arrival....
...and the thoughts that probably never left us...
The fashion style which is in someone...
...and the team spirit which is in some others.
All the different emotions at the arrival...
...under the gazes of unusual spectators....
