Kent Christmas Cracker 2014

A mixture of serious athletes and fun runners donned assorted festive outfits for the annual Christmas Cracker, which this year saw a record field of over 200 taking part.  The light was challenging, as it always seems to be for this race.

Deal Half Marathon 2014

After snow stopped play in 2012 and bitter cold blighted the 2013 race, this year's Deal Half Marathon saw plenty of sunshine and mild temperatures.  Anthony Jackson of Sittingbourne Striders came in more than five minutes ahead of the second placed runner.

Kent Christmas Cracker 5 2013, Fowlmead Country Park

Bit of a wild day.  Very strong gusty winds and frequent heavy rain.  Combined with very poor light, it certainly made for very challenging conditions in which to be snapping.  Race itself was excellent.  I have a feeling a lot of these runners actually prefer it when the weather is shocking ;)  Excellent turnout, especially in view of the conditions.  Plenty of fun festive costumes.  Really enjoyed this one.  At least it wasn't cold ;)

Very cold day, but bright.  Nearly killed myself getting to Fowlmead on black ice.  But survived and here are the snaps to prove it ;)
