Um, he's Geb, he is ALWAYS that way before a race, haven't you noticed?
anybody got a link to the actual results?
Is that guy next to Geb at the start really named AWOL?
Peter Gilmore seems to be thinking....why am I here?

check out the pics on page 2..the ones of them standing at the starting line. I love how four of the "brooks" guys are wearing Nike, Addidas, and Asics shoes! Looks like something new on Adbi's feet as well.
Skylon, nobody's praising your photos. So I will. They are excellent. Race photos can be deadly boring; yours aren't. The portraits are especially good. Fine job.
BTW, I was on the Skylon Marathon committee for years and was their timer after 1981...do you have a personal connection to the race?
Skylon, there are no photos of the Japanese girls. I am truly disappointed.
Oh wait! It's Monday, August 6, and so therefore I am in Japan now...so I will have to go outside and scam for chicks.

Great pics Skylon, what camera were you using?
Great photos, Skylon. I'm itching to see if there are any photos of the women's finish....
I was shooting with a Nikon D200 and a D80 (80-200 lens and an 18-70). Sadly, I just missed the top finishers--23 minutes from CP east to WTC didn't quite cut it. Plus,the NYRRC "hired guns security squad" made it very hard to get closeup to the elites at the end anyways.....NOT a spectator friendly finish line AT ALL. Next time,at the trials, I'll try to get some sort of media credentials.
Thanks Skylon. Seeing Catherine Ndereba like that was really cool. She can be perceived to be glum and serious when she is behind those sunglasses, but your pictures showed a great smile and how pretty she is.

I think the 'Brooks' singlets are Westchester TC guys so they are not necessarily 'Brooks runners'.
