Hastings Half Marathon 2015

It's a whopper, by my standards.  Major race, around 3000 finishers.  Tried to snap as many of them as I could.

Canterbury 10K 2015

First time I've covered this race.  Nice flat course starting and finishing in the picturesque village of Chartham near Canterbury.  Lots of potential for fast times.  Well organised event that seemed very popular with the competitors. Only real down side was the light, which was quite low and quite hazy, not ideal for snapping.

Lydd Half Marathon & 20 Mile 2015

Weather turned out to be lovely again in Lydd, as per last year.  With the new 20 miler taking place alongside the traditional half marathon, the field was about double that of previous years, with many using the new race as marathon preparation.  One of the best races I've covered, with very friendly runners.  Somewhat odd that the race started in the road, rather than in the field, as was the case in the past.

Ricki Savage Thanet 20 Mile Race 2015

The Thanet 20 returned after a year's break, in memory of Ricki Savage who tragically died at the age of 27 after taking part in the 2013 Dublin Marathon.  As ever, organisation was excellent.  The sun shone, though the competitors had a very strong wind to contend with.  Light was an issue, but then it always seems to be at any race I cover.  Nothing whatsoever to do with my own ineptitude with the camera, of course ;)
