There are two sides to the story of this race - RICK'S and DEBRA'S.
More pictures will be coming - I did manage to get my father's pictures up, but I still have more to come - David took some great ones.
Also, there were professional photographers on the course - and rather amazingly, all of their pictures were available, and divided by athlete, the day following the race. I've posted a few of those pictures - which include the ever-so-important race finish picture (it's near impossible for a spectator to get a good shot) - HERE
