My Official Photos from the TC 10 Mile

>> Monday, October 14, 2024

I had SO MANY race photos from the TC 10 Mile 8 days ago where I surprised myself with my 2nd ever sub-60:00. Here are a few that show the course of the day:


Back there in the middle at the start.


My "Pinky and the Brain" shorts visible under that guy's fist!


On the right around 1 mile in.






Don't know where this is, but it had to be early because of how dark it is.
(I remember some strobe lights going off around mile 1.75 or so.)






Don't know where this is either, but there's Nathan in the foreground!
As I mentioned in my race report, he really pulled me down Summit Ave!
(This *could* be rounding the top of the steep hill at mile 5.)


Mile 4.5 coming up from the Marshall Bridge.


After mile 8 - knowing I had sub-60!!...


... and still going hard!!

Then fast-forward to mile 9.5... there were photographers just before where my brother-in-law Matt snapped a few photos of me as I ran by. Here's me in that pack of 3 other runners, including the woman I went back-and-forth with a few times in the last 4 miles:




I look pissed here, but I was THRILLED knowing I was on my way to sub-60!


My pack buddies.




Up the final little incline before the downhill finish!


Downhill past the Cathedral!


I was now leading that pack of 4!




Pained! (HAPPY, but pained.)


Awkward hip drop.








Chin down and sprinting!


Lip curl! (That happens when I'm breathing really hard!)




I'm torn: my bicep looks BIG, but it also looks loose and flappy. Gross.

Now a few feet farther at the finish line:


Hitting the line! All by myself.


Ah yes... the always coveted "stopping the watch while crossing the line" photo.


Striding across the line.


Pooped. Happy.


Another angle. OH YES, THAT WOMAN I WAS RUNNING WITH IN THE
PACK OF 4 AT MILE 9.5 OUT-KICKED ME WITH 100 METERS LEFT!


Walking over for a high-five! (She's the one in my race report who I told
"WE HAVE A SHOT AT SUB-60!" around mile 7. WE DID IT!)


Through the finisher's area!
